Re: <E30> Clutch replacement- any hints?

Hi Leo,

Before you go and buy the clutch, have you ascertained that it is in fact
a worn clutch?  Failing master and/or slave cylinders can frequently cause
the same effect (little effective travel).  Look for leaking fluid around
the master and slave cylinders (telltale drops around the rubber boots).

Hope this helps.
