[DeTomaso] Clutch help

[JDeRyke at aol.com]

I had this problem in a concentric piston throwout system similar to yours, 
Roger, and it turned out to be the stock master cylinder bypassing 
internally so it would not hold pressure. I wound up changing masters to a 3/4" dia. 
aluminum Girling.
Minimize driving the car until you get this straightened out. If by chance 
the throwout bearing and its driving piston is bottomed in the cylinder, the 
piston will be spinning with the clutch. The quad-ring that seals the whole 
hydraulic system cannot take any rotary motion at all, and you'll soon 
spring a leak (~50 miles?) requiring a complete clutch cylinder rebuild- which 
means the ZF will be out on the floor to do this. Good luck- J Deryke
