#1 72 XKE hydraulic clutch

Post by opticsguy » Thu Mar 24, 2011 12:14 pm

In reference to my 1972 XKE. The clutch failed suddenly, pedal goes to the floor, no resistance. The hydraulic reservoir is full. I did drive the car home changing gears by matching the revs, thank goodness I did not have to stop along the way and go into neutral.

So any suggestions? I would assume the slave cylinder or?

And how to repair, no one in my area will work on this car.
