Hello, Jamison here, Your car has A hydrolic clutch,, There are A couple of things that will cause your problem, LOW FLUID, BAD master or slave cylinder, And the LEAST likely, Your clutch disc or cover is broken,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Good luck, Jamison.
I had this problem. For me the pressure plate was sticking and broke the linkage. Take it to the dealer for replacement.
May be clutch cable sticking, clutch lever on the gearbox sticking or the actual friction plate in the clutch sticking on the shaft. the latter would probably mean taking the gearbox out to check. The clutch lever on box is easily oiled but usually the return from a clutch is great enough to pull it back but check anyway.
From the factory yes it would have a hydraulic clutch ! If not it has been modified at a later date .
If a truck has a clutch brake it would only be used when coming to a complete stop. By pushing the clutch peddle completely to the floor you would apply the clutch brake. This stops the clutch disc from spinning making it easier to shift into 1st or reverse gear. Normal shifting while driving you would not need to or want to push the clutch peddle to the floor to activate the clutch brake.
either not enough gas or spark or... i had the clutch sticking once. it would go but not really bad clutch
Yes it could.
Things to check first are is the clutch fluid reservoir low?Second check at the transmission on the right hand side at the slave cylinder for it leaking and note(fluid would be low in the reservoir).Mazda trks are notorious for slave cyldr failure.Now if the fluid is not low and the slave is not leaking things to consider.Now do you here any noise coming from the transmission while in neutral ONLY,and once you depress the clutch pedal the noise goes away(if so the throw out bearing is going bad)I would not say the clutch is need of replacement IN most cases based on on a sticking clutch pedal.Probably the clutch master is going bad(spring is weak inside assembley) and the fluid level is fine,no leaks at the slave cylinder and what you need to do is REPLACE the clutch master cylinder!I do not recommend a rebuild go to auto zone they sell the whole unit with the reservoir,and you will have to bleed the air out at the slave cyldr once installed.Typically with this issue the pedal sticking is low fluid,leaking slave clydr,or a bad clutch master clydr.Worst case is you need a new clutch,or throw out bearing and pressure plate.Normally a failing a clutch it will slip in any gear and or not shift into a particular gear.Try the simple stuff first over a new clutch/bearing assembly.
You may have some bare wires that are shorting out on the clutch pedal. Get under the dash and check it out.
I would say air in the line, or you need a new clutch
You should not attempt to replace the clutch yourself unless you have considerable mechanical skills. In this case, the problem is most likely that the spring holding the clutch pedal in place is broken.
if its hydraulic there could be air in your line. bleed your clutch and refill.
A major indicator would be when you push the clutch in, you can't shift your transmission. Another one would be when you push the clutch pedal, it just goes straight to the floor with no resistance, or it doesn't push in at all.
