Can somone help please,
18cc freelander on a 05 plate, have put a new master/slave assembly on but the cluch pedal is solid, a wee bit look around and it seems that the leaver that the slave gose on to is siezed, so with the aid of a heavy hammer and a can off wd40 i have got it to move about an inch, how far dose it travel normaly and should it be free enough to move by hand and how far should i go with the hammer before i admit defeat and send it to a garage.

Should be approx 3-4 inches of travel IIRC, though this was with the gearbox removed. You need to keep working the clutch lever until it moves freely, with no restriction

You will only get it to move a small amount by hand unless the box is removed. Now it moves a bit pushing the clutch pedal a few times should free it off. I use a mix of engine oil and CV joint grease to lube that lever!!
