alright im new here so im still learning. i got a 90 laser rs turbo and im having problems shifting gears, i have to basically force it in. i dont think my clutch is blown because its not slipping or squeking or anything like that. its just hard to shift it, seems like i am low on clutch fluid but im not. any suggestions, thanks in advaced.
 
Well maybe your master or slave cylinder are gone. Is there any fluid inside the car like by your feet. If so your master is gone.
 
had the same problem well only in 1st and reverse, had my slave cylinder replaced helped out a bit, but i believe my master is out as well, i would have both checked out if i were you, also if you lookup crankwalk, it will also explain a little on what may be happening with your shifting.
 
well i got no fluid on the floor so im thinking its my slave cylinder around how much is it gonna run me part and labor. thanks for the advice

ok i found out my slave cylinder is gone but now im getting some messed up symptoms. is there any way a bad slave would cause bucking in the car and rpms dropping when you press the gas or is something else going wrong. by the way i am getting my gear oil and slave cylinder replased tomorro and getting the clutch lines bled will this help or do i need to buy something else. thanks
