Clutch pedal sinking further and further down? 200

My 1982 240's clutch pedal sinks further and further down. This started happening all of a sudden last night on a trip back home. What do you think this is?


thanks

I had the cable pull completely through on my '80 245.

I ended up welding a washer against the firewall to regain support:







That cable is never going to pull through again.

Good luck!

The release lever may have cracked and is bending, or the clutch cable anchor at the firewall is pulling through.
