clutch slips when cold?

[Boosted19]

Well I have a new clutch to go in but I noticed something wierd... The clutch only seems to slip when its cold outside. Like 20-30 degrees. Earlier in the day it was 45ish. Clutch did not seem to slip at all unless it was in 4th gear flooring it at 3500 rpms. But now at night its about 20 something degrees, it slips bad. like it slipped going 3/4 throttle in 2nd gear to pull on the highway. The fluid is fairly new. Dot3 synthetic. About 400-500 miles old. I have no restrictor in my slave either anymore. (reason being when it was cold out the clutch pedal didnt seem to let up fast. Stuck part way in the middle) Figured it did that because it was in the teens in temp. So I took the restrictor out. Anyone have any ideas before I put my new clutch in on thursday? I dont wanna ruin a good clutch if it will still slip in the cold weather...
Thanks!

It shouldnt slip at all with a new clutch being put in, but also try replacing the clutch fork and pivot ball and maybe that should solve all of your problems. Make sure to do the fork and ball also if you are going with an ACT clutch, they tend to need those parts replaced ,when anything act goes into your car.

This is just speculation, but as you know the motor produces more power when the air is cold. Maybe just enough extra torque to put your fading clutch over the threshold.

romeen- I thought of that but I can only give it like half or 3/4 throttle and it will slip. And comparing the performance from 45*to 20ish the 20* 3/4 throttle still isnt faster then the 45* full throttle.
st8spoolin- How comes it only slips when its cold then? Dont think it has anything to do with the hydraulics? Like the fluid being extremely thick in the cold. My clutch pedal is hella hard when its cold. And yea a ACT2100 and XACT streetlite is going in. I am going to get a clutch fork and pivot ball today from mitusbishi...
Thanks so far!!!
