Subject: 88 GL - Clutch Rattle

Volksiebus - my 88 GL has developed a clutch rattle/chatter when the clutch
is depressed - Like sitting at a stop light, etc. It's a noise - and the
chatter is not a physical manifestation - just rattle/chatter.
With the tranny in neutral - clutch pedal out or engaged - no rattle.
but push that sucker in - and its Rattle City.

Anyone have any ideas as to what might be going on?

Thanks,

John
