hey whats up guys my name is adison I'm 20 years old and live in good ole Paducah Ky lol...I just recently purchased a 95 camaro z28 6 speed the car is stock other then the bbk 58 mm tb i put on. I just recently broke it i was shifting into 3rd and my clutch stuck to the floor So i get the car home and call up a couple of my buddies and ask them what they think it might be because i didn't know. The guy i purchased the car from said it had a brand new hays clutch, so i didn't even think it would be the clutch.. so far I've replaced the slave cylinder, i had a steel braided clutch line made because the other one had a hole in it.. which i thought was the problem. and also i replaced the clutch master cylinder. Its still has no pressure after i bled it for like 45 mins.. but the weird thing is it wont go into gear at all and when i try to start the car up with the clutch engaged it wont start it turns over a lil bit.. but then quits. But when i start the car up with out the clutch pushed in it starts right up but when i push the clutch in it makes a weird noise comin from the tranny and almost dies its really weird.. so me and my buddies think it is the pressure plate what do you guys think... lol i hate for my intro to be like this but im just in a big mess and want to drive my car again lol

Welcome! I'm from Jackson, Missouri (right next to to Cape Girardeau)

I don't know much about manual transmisions. Maybe try looking under the manual transmission forum here.

if the car is having problems starting maybe your clutch switch is bad. i broke mine shifting hard.
but sounds like there might be a lil more damage
