Get the car on a lift, grab a flashlight, and peek through the rubber dust cover while having someone step on the clutch pedal to see if the CSC moves. If it doesn't move, then maybe the master cylinder failed.

My car will die when i'm in gear. If it was the CSC failing I would have no clutch. I have the complete opposite, the clutch will not disengage.

Also I found out today that the car will not let you brake boost the car. As soon as you press the brakes and try and get on the gas it will cut all the fuel to the car. I was going to try loading up the clutch and essentially press all three pedals at the same time to break the clutch free, but the car would not let that happen.

Mark - Just goes to show what these cars can take. They're are awesome cars.

If the clutch will not disengage then it could be the hydraulics. You may have welded the discs to the flywheel and the CSC just can't supply enough force to break it free but I don't think you have eliminated the hydraulics yet.

The clutch is spring release and when you want to disengage it you apply pressure to the CSC which takes the clamping force off the pressure plate and allows the clutch to sit in between the two and free spin.

But yes it is pull the tranny time. Ill let you know what I find.

Thanks guys.
