Sometimes in second, the clutch pedal pins itself to the bulkead and only comesback up if you change gear or tap the pedal.

Any thoughts?

I had this on my Nissan 200sx with hydraulic clutch.
Turned out to be a seal in either the master or the slave cylinder allowing fluid to leak past one way so leaving the pedal on the floor when changing gear quickly.

Might be time to replace master and slave cylinders - best to do both at the same time.

Could be something else mind!

Sounds like a plan, i'll investigate. Ta.
