Re: Clutch chatter
The best thing is to take the clutch apart, either by removing the engine or removing the rear end and transmission. It is easier for me to remove the engine because then the clutch is accessable and I don't have to be working under the car or through the hole where the floor boards were. I don't have a lift.
You could try some spray parts cleaner with the clutch peddle held down while the engine is running. That would be a pig in a poke. I have no idea if it would work. And that may not be the cause of your clutch chatter. A block of wood cut to the right length and wedged between the clutch peddle and the brake peddle will hold the clutch down. Do not breath the spray. A carbon filter face mask is a good idea.

The clutch always sticks, and starts with a jerk.
