Indeed it can happen. I had the same symptoms you describe on my '86 9KT and the problem, as Ken mentions, turned out to be the hyraulic line. It cost me about $200, but I also got a new clutch pedal out of the deal. -Doug Ken Washington wrote: >Paul, > >At 45K miles I don't think it is the clutch.
