Clutch problems Clutch problems
I'm having some weird clutch problems and I need some advice. I took my car to the strip a little over a month ago. When I got to the end of the track, the car didn't want to go into 1st. I had to go to 2nd and then slam it into 1st. Since then, that problem has gotten better, but the clutch pedal still feels weird. Whenever I get on it and try to shift gears, it doesn't want to come out of gear and sometimes when I come to a stop and push in the clutch, it is still grabbing. It's like the clutch isn't fully disengaging. I need advice here because I don't have the money to go spending on parts that I don't need. I can easily fix the car myself, I just am not sure what's wrong. I was thinking it might just be a bad slave cylinder but it seems like it may be a little bit more of a problem than that. Broken clutch fork? Broken spring in the clutch? Warped flywheel? This problem is not just in first, it is in all gears, moving and sitting still.
BTW: The clutch is not slipping any when under a load.
