Re: CANT PUSH CLUTCH PEDAL DOWN
 

The retainer on the push rod in the master cylinder can pop out and the
push rod jams against firewall as happened to me once. Try lifting up on
the clutch pedal if it lifts then this is what has happened. I placed
the rod back into the master cylinder and bungied the whole thing down
to hold it in and drove home. '91 YJ also.

Bill and Jeff thanks for he input. Jeff I tried to move the pedal up
and she would not budge
so I decided to remove the master cyl. When I did and moved the push
rod it would stick. Installed a new one and she shifts like butter
again
