Ok, my 92 civic has this thing it has started to do every morning or when the car get totaly cold. We are just starting to get frosty mornings here in Canada. I have replaced the trans oil with what the manual called for this summer, when the clutch was replace. The flywheel was machined and a new pressure plate and throwout bearing were also installed.

When I depress the clutch pedal, everything feels normal, but I can't ingage any gears. I have to wait like 10-20seconds before I can get it into gear. I'm thinking it's the slave cylinder but not sure. I know honda's slaves are external, and super easy to replace (considering I've done 5 tranny pulls for internal ford slaves last year; f250 and explorer). But when slaves usually go the pedall just doesn't return. ????? WTF???? could this be a master cyl? air in the line?? what to check??? I'll try changing the fluid. Dot 3 is it? I'll go trough a few cycles untill the fluid is clean and see if that helps.

Anyone have this before? I drove the car last winter not a single problem.

Thanks

if you pump the clutch a few times does it work?

I tried this, and the clutch 'feels' good but does NOT help.
