CHECK YOUR CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER FLUID

IS IT LOW?

DO YOU FEEL ANY (OR MORE THAN NORMAL) FREEPLAY IN YOUR PEDAL AS YOU PUSH IT---BEFORE YOU FEEL RESISTANCE FROM THE CLUTCH?

MAY BE NEEDING TO BE BLED

IF THERE IS AN ADJUSTMENT, TAKE SOME SLOP OUT OF THE PEDAL LINKAGE--MAKING YOUR ENGAGEMENT HIGHER
