Clutch probs?

Hi All, the temps in Wisconsin have been in the teens to low 20's for a
high and low single digets for a low for the last two weeks which is giving
me clutch problems? The problem is the clutch pedal doesn't want to return
after being depressed, the clutch itself seems to operate OK.

This leads me to two thoughts, I have moisture in the clutch fluid ('92
Turbo) or the lube on the pedal mechanism is getting stiff from the cold
temps?

Anyone have this problem? Suggestions, comments?

Thanks,
PeteH
Cold but not much snow Wisconsin.

I have had the problem and found it to be the lube in the clutch pedal
mechanism. I could tell by getting down under there and moving the
pedal by hand and I could feel it and hear a little squeak I ended up
taking the assembly out and giving it a good cleaning and using
Lubriplate grease on it. The clutch worked better so it must of been
somewhat stiff before sticking.

Cool, Thanks AL! I was hoping it wasn't anything more involved than a good
remove/re-lube/reinstall.
