AZ Need clutch tune up in Phoenix

I replaced my clutch a couple of years ago (less than 2000 miles on the new clutch) by someone here in Phoenix who Ive lost contact with. Clutch occasionally wont go into gear, and I have a feeling something needs adjustment. I also have a feeling this is something a dealer could do, but wanted to see if someone here could look for me?

1990 NA

Let me know-
Dan

Am not familiar with the car but if it has a hydraulic clutch cylinder that has been the culprit on mine when clutch would not engage. There is not much adjustment other than free play and all in the linkage nothing internal to adjust. Would not recommend a rebuild cylinder or to rebuild one, rather go with a new one, just my personal experience.

If you are not inclined to do this almost any repair shop can install and bleed the lines. Would check with brake shops as it is no more complicated than that.

look around where the master cylinder meets the firewall and look for wet.

look around the clutch slave, mounted on the bell housing directly behind the center intake, and look for wet.

If you see wet, replace it.
