Clutch keeps getting stuck whenever I'm ready to drive car...
All right guys. Whenever I'm ready to put my gear in when starting car, my clutch
doesnt allow, because it stays stuck (like a door hinge). And the only way to
unloose it, is to pump it several times (which I just did like a few mins. ago). So
my ? is what could be the problem here. Gears are fine for now. Prolly will need
swap done in a little while, but for now when a new clutch be in the picture?
Thanks for looking at this and your help..

check your clutch fluid homie. Far right , up next to the brakefluid holder. i bet you its either empty or you may need a new clutch.

If I need a new clutch, how much do they run for. Are what are the different kinds.
Not that knowledged on parts like that, as you can tell. So thanks for the help.

replace clutch master and slave cylinders. Seals are probably on their last leg. It should solve your problem as long as the clutch is still good.

Guys, as you can possibly tell he is a nOOb. He needs help and I can't give it to him...cuz I suck at the explaining. Hook him up. To the original poster: If you have no prior experience with clutches or seals for the MC (master cylinder) you need to take to a buddy who knows what he's doing and learn from him, take it slow and learn how to do it from someone knowledgeable enough to walk you thru it, or take it to a shop and hover behind the mechanic until he kicks you out.

If you can find good prices, you should be able to get both parts for under $100 easy. Installing them is fairly easy if you know anything about removing and re-installing bolts.
During the install, you will want to have brake fluid sucked into the master cylinder before it's mounted. It will help you out in the bleeding process after everything is installed. When you get the part, the included instructions should tell you how to accomplish that part.
After you have installed everything and have the master cylinder bled, you'll want to bleed the slave cylinder. It will have a valve on the end of it that can be loosened to allow air to escape while someone depresses the clutch pedal.
FYI- master cylinder is on the firewall opposite your clutch pedal. the slave cylinder is located on the front side of the transmission/motor next to the radiator fan.
