Clutch questions

sdemma · 2006-06-05T23:15:15+00:00

In the last two weeks my 95 Miata (153K miles) becomes extremelydifficult to get in gear. Reverse being so impossible that I generallywill just push it myself so I don't have to "deal with it". Once itgets warmed up it gets easier but R is still hard. There is verylittle resistance in the pedal as well. I bought it in 99 (30K miles)off a lease and I am guessing the clutch is the original one since Ihaven't replaced one.1. Do you think I need a new clutch? There is no slipping so I amthinking this is not the case.2. Should I just try to bleed the clutch?3. Should I go ahead and replace the master and the slave cylinders ifI am going to bleed the clutch? I read that once you bleed the clutch,the slave and master goes within 3 months due to the "new" fluid.4. Do you think it is a linkage problem and I should just take it tothe shop??Thank you in advance!Emma

OK, how's this: "Ah don' wanna talk to you no more, you empty-headed animal food-trough wiper! Ah fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelt of elderberries!"
