Thanks to this site, I was able to remove my tranny Sept. '08 and replace the clutch/slave cylinder and have been problem free since that time, UNTIL, I had to tromp on the brakes and clutch to avoid not one but two idiots that up and turned in front of me.After the smoke cleared,there was no collision, I could'nt get it into 1st and had to turn it off and start it in gear and limp home. Did I blow a seal in the slave? I think I know the answer as this is exactly how it "shifted" before I re-placed it.The reservoir is/was full and there's no fluid visible in the view port on the tranny. Thanks for any help, Yogi,and to a lesser extent, BooBoo.

fill the resevoir and then look if you can see any leaks, probably the master if the slave is new.

Thanks for the advice Martin. Totally dry everywhere that I can tell but I'll put some tissue or paper towels all around the area to check if I missed something. I just drove it a bit and shifting works, then it doesnt?!!?
