Well, just as I though everything was going to be great and I would get to drive my own 7 to abf the gremlins decided to come out and play (damn you!). I think the clutch is still good because I still have all my gears. Only problem is that I have to use an excessive amount of force to put it into any gear. The clutch pedal has no resistance when I push it down... so I have determined that my problem is the clutch is not dissengaging. But why?! I checked the clutch cylinder to make sure it had fluid and it was full to the full line, same with the brake resivoir. What gives!? Any help wuld be very much appretiated! Thanks.

start by bleeding your hydraulic clutch fluid...you may have had an air bubble in your line...

Sounds like the clutch master cyl has gone TU.
Atleast that is what it is like when my '81 loses it's clutch
Also one piece of advice, change both the master and slave at the same time, or else you will be chasing this problem again in like 4-6 months

Mr.KK sounds like he knows what's going on. Most likly there is is no air in the system, they just don't deside to suck air. air only grts there when it's put togther or has run low of DOT 3 like becouse of a leak. Steps to take, check the slave roll back the fore skin and look for wet, next get under the dash and at the push rod link look for wet, go to the engine compartment and look for wet to where the clutch mounts to the fire wall. If all is good most likly is the master cly is leaking by inturnel. Take Mr KK's advice replace BOTH

Sorry to break the thread...
But, what the hell is this MR KK? Gambone?
Do you all have a phobia of a woman that knows something about cars?
Just how many guys do you know named Karyn Kathryn?
And just how many guys have a 44D chest?
