i have a 98 S-10 5 speed. for the past six months it has been losing clutch fluid. i would have to pump the clutch after i filt it up to get tension back on the clutch. it was using a bottle every week. then i was leaving the hospital i tried to drive home. it was in 5th gear the whole way home and doing 25 miles an hour. the engine runs perfect. i was driving it rough the night before because of an emergency. my buddy said he could smell the clutch burning after we got to the hospital that night. now it wont move at all! it will go in gear it jus wont move! any help would really be helpfull! im tired of walking to work every morning! lol thanx again

Hi there,

If you have been loosing clutch fluid you will have a leak at the master or slave cylinder. Check and replace any faulty unit & re bleed hopefully this will solve your issue. Start here.
