Problems

Since it has been cold, i've been experiencing problems with my clutch, not wanting to go in gear and such, tonight right when i got in my drive, (changing gears) i depressed the clutch took it outta gear and pumped the clutch as i've been having to do, and it just goes to the floor. So, i figure it must be clutch or slave cylinder. I figure i might as well replace those, and the throw out bearing, so what do you think it is? Off to O reilly.com to check prices.

did you check the fluid level? your slave cylinder could be leaking.

its brake fluid. give bleeding it a try, ya never know. I would also try taking the hose off of the slave and see if any fluid comes out when you pump it.

well that might now work cause thats like a quick connect couple and it doesnt leak when its undone. cause its kinda weird that you fluid is full and it doesnt work, i would think that if it were the slave cylinder it would be leaking fluid.

maybe somebody else has an idea?
