[QUOTE="3B99SVT, post: 11570616, member: 35689"] I would check the ends of the cable and housing. When I broke a clutch cable on my '91 it was so frayed that the cable was binding where it went into the housing. It was the top connection that frayed first and then finally broke. I'll also mention checking that your clutch release lever (the arm that hold the TOB) didn't come off the pivot ball. Mine did when I was trying to put some lube on my TOB and retainer sleeve and it was hard to push my clutch in. I pushed too hard before I knew it slipped off the pivot ball and actually cracked my TOB. I'm not sure it would be a quick change in pedal effort, but my retaining sleeve was really dry and the grease was just a dry, caked on mess. The pedal effort was very high then. Some new high temp synthetic grease and it's as smooth as a baby's bottom now, but I did have the tranny out by then so it was easy to do. [/QUOTE]
