The car was flooded. I have replaced the slave cylinder and cleaned all tubes. I'm thinking that the pressure plate is rusted stuck. Also, I'm not exactly sure how to get to the pressure plate in order to get it unstuck.Help!

Good morning,

The transmission would have to be removed. At that point, it would be best just to replace the clutch assembly.
