RE: Sticking clutch pedal



I take it that your Milano clutch pedal is returning intermittently. 
Temporarily, tie one end of a cord to the pedal an sit upon the other end
so you'll know where to find it next time it sticks.  When it does, do a
Michael Jackson imitation - sequined glove not required - grabbing the
cord and yanking up the pedal.  Do try your best to be descreet.  This is
not a good time to offer to drive your friends/relatives/co-workers
anywhere if you are the least bit thin-skinned although they will find it
amusing as you try to steer, shift gears and jerk the cord all at the
same time with only two hands.  Alternatively you could tie a large loop
on your end of the cord and hang it around your neck.  That yould leave
your hands free and you could just snap your head back in kind of a
'hip-hop' routine.  Just be sure to unleash yourself before exiting the
car.  Don't bother to bleed the sustem until you replace the master
cylinder.  That'll fix it.
