I agree with Victor. Right before I took my car off the road, I had the same
symptoms. When I took the car apart and showed the pedals to Ross. He told
me that my clutch pedal was a goner. Egg shaped hole worn by 30+ years of
shifting.

>- Snip and edit - I had to thread the nuts on the slave cylinder all the
way to the end to get the clutch to shift otherwise it was too tight. About
a month ago the clutch started to feel like it was getting really hard to
shift again Is this problem my slave, or could it be the MC going out?
I Vote neither. My WAG is the clutch rod connection to the pedal. The hole
ovals and the pin wears and soon you don't have enough travel to operate the
clutch fully. Once it starts to wear, it wears even faster, and gets worse
over time, like you described.
