    Check to be sure that all the springs in the system are in place and in good condition. If that turns out to solve the problem, you'll be lucky since those are easy to remedy.

    Another problem source is worn bushings supporting the pedal pivot shaft. That's a lot harder to remedy.

      Harry, Sometimes Its Not The Linkage, The Pressure Plate Fingers Sometimes A Few Loose The Tension And Causes The The Throw Out Bearing To Jump Around And Sends It Back Up The Pedal Through The Linkage. Just Check For Any Or Slight Movement At The Clutch Fork Area When The Cars Running.

        Harry, when you say just touch the petal, are you still in that 'free zone', before you feel any resistance? Bill

          I had the same noise. The small rubber clutch pedal bumper at the top of the clutch pedal had worn through and let metal touch metal when the clutch was out. A $1.50 fix.

            I was missing one of my anti rattle springs. Sometimes it is the smallest thing. DUTCH
