Thank you young blood for helping to get across the seriousness of what he is asking about. I don't want to see him destroy his tranny over a damn clutch master cylinder.

Well, I got it fixed. Replacing the master cylinder AND fixing a leak fixed the problem. It costed me $250 part and labour.

Now I know that I can't ignore "interminently ON brake light indicator" on the dashboard.

Thank you all for the help!

okay. that fixed the problem temporarily. Now its back to same situation!

BUT, i think i found the problem. a BOLT(top most) in the clutch pedal assembly is MISSING! Is that why clutch is not disengaging properly/pedal not coming up all the way like it use to be before?

I see that if i put the bolt on, the pedal will have more height and also it will press the neutral safety switch properly.

Is that why pedal wasn't touching the safety switch and hard to shift into hgear?
