I was doing some offroading yesterday and was driving through some very deep and soft mud. When I was trying to rock the car, the clutch became less and less responsive until it froze in the released position. It was annoying to have to pull dead weight out. On dry ground, I pulled the inspection cover and dug the mud out between the springs and the pressure plate housing enough to limp home.
What I think happened was the mud either splashed through the top holes of the bell housing or maybe came up through the drain holes. Has anyone experienced this problem? Could there be any negative consequences for sealing the bell housing?
