    Angry tranny problems

    SO my 90 gs is having isuues with the tranny is having issues. The clutch all of sudden has no pressure in it. I have to press it in about 6 times before i get any pressure so i can take it out of gear or put it in. When it looses pressure the clutch wont disingage. My guess it is either the slave master cylinder or the master. Any input is appreciated. Btw i didnt know were i should post this.

    Pop the hood and look at the slave cylinder. There will be fluid all over. If not, add fluid and try again. Although, you might just have a shit load of air in the lines. If you aren't losing fluid, this is probably the case and you need to bleed your clutch. But, if this is all of a sudden, I HIGHLY doubt air is in the lines.

    Very true. There will be a wetspot somewhere from the fluid being shot out, make sure you clean it all up ASAP as brake fluid will eat through paint.
    Also check inside around the clutch pedal on the firewall it may be leaking back there as well.

    Well ive looked and i see no leaks plus the resevoir is still full. I will have to double check just to make sure. I also found out that brake fluid eats your paint the hard way. I was not happy lol.
