Clutch pedal not moving - siezed?
I have a 95 f150 and the clutch pedal will not move? There is no travel in the pedal at all. There were no noised leading up to the problem, everything was working fine. The fliud was down a bit, hoping for the quick fix I added some fluid but topping it up made no difference. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Did you remove the rubber diaphragm from the reservoir before adding fluid?
Start with the pedal itself: Is there something behind it physically jamming it? It's mounted to a shaft that runs over the steering column (with the brake pedal on the same shaft) to a small lever above the gas pedal. That's connected to the master cylinder pushrod, with the clutch switch wrapped around that pushrod. None of them should be strong enough to result in "no travel in the pedal at all", but take a look. Anything bent irregularly? Anything jammed in there? Watch everything while you push the pedal by hand.
