clutch problem?
Hi yesterday I purchased a 95.5 Tacoma 3.4 and when ever I have to start it I have to really lean into the clutch to get it started. The person I bought this truck from said that he took it to the dealership three or four times to replace the clutch and they never seemed to get it right. There isn't any problem shifting, it shifts just fine minus the squeak . I have searched and I have found out how to eliminate that problem, already bought the spring from true value. I was just wondering about the difficulty pushing in the clutch when starting. Any advice would be helpful. Thank you

#1 Check the Clutch pedal assy...its possible that its cracked
#2 You have to lean into the clutch to get the truck started...ie ignition? Becuase if thats the case, then its the sensor causing it to have to be pushed all the way to the floor to be started.

Thank you for the quick response. Yes I meant when I turn the ignition on I have to press it very hard to the floor. If it is the sensor would that affect when I am driving and shifting gears because that works fine and I hardly press the clutch to shift while driving?

The only point of the sensor is to detect that the clutch is depressed. Basically, its a failsafe to ensure the vehicle is not in gear when you start it.
That sensor will not affect driving or shifting.
You should have a clutch start cancel switch...try pressing that (make sure the truck is out of gear) It will bypass that pedal assemnbly mounted switch until you get it fixed.
