Clutch systoms again.
This is weird!! My clutch has gotten so bad that I can out the brake on slide the shifter into 1st, let out the clutch, and the car won't stall. The car still moves with the stock clutch in it but it slips REAL bad. This is starting not to sound like a clutch disk problem to me and more like a master cylinder problem(is that what they call it?)? Please not my factory clutch only has 48k miles on it. I also noticed a slight seeping under the dash board where the clutch lever goes through the fire wall. Looks like some kind of oil of some type. When ever I go to release the clutch peddle, it gets very slow on the relase and feels heavy. Weird sensation. Anyways the car still shift perfect in every gear with no grinding. Just thought I would get the final word before I order up my centerforce tomorrow!

Fluid inside the car...if the clutch/brake reservoir is low then you found your problem. I would replace both the master and slave cylinders at the same time if you intend to keep the car. Be forewarned, they are a little hard to bleed after you replace them.

the fluid in your car has no bearing on clutch slippage if you where loosing cluch fluid u simply could not disingauge clutch.the slippage is your disk slipping between your pressure plate and flywheel.proubley because of either you have a rear main seal leak putting oil on the disk or the cluth springs have broken prematurely lodging themselves in disk or to many 1st gear bearn offs.
