Default Surprise...no clutch.

When driving home from visiting friends last night, pushed the clutch to shift from second to third. Clutch went straight to the floor. Obviously something happened to the clutch pedal linkage. Thankfully we were only a mile from home, so kept it in second gear and just drove more slowly.

When I crawled under the A to take a look. This is what if found - the somewhat substantially piece of cast iron making up the clutch release shaft arm had cracked right down the middle! Thankfully, I have another one on the shelf with some other transmission parts, so an easy fix. Just a bit of a surprise.
