A friend is coming over this morning to work on his, new to him, manual "78" 240D. The clutch does not engage until way to far out. I have searched the archives and have found nothing about this. We had planned to bleed the system with the speedy bleeder. My first thought was the car needs a new clutch. Could it need adjusting (wishful thinking?) Does anyone think bleeding will help? I figure it will be good practice if nothing else.
