need help! clutch sticking.
this is my first 5 spd. i just bought the car about a week ago. its a 92 civic cx hatch. the lady told me her husband put in the D15b8,or b7 cant remember, when the original motor went out. the D15 has about 100,xxx from what she told me. the odometer reads 214,xxx. anyways, im freaked out becuz i never owned a 5 spd. before. could it be time for a new clutch or does it need oil like when in an automatic. if so where the hell is do you put it at. i thought it might have been cold becuz a cold front came through today and its around 50 ish outside. but after driving for about 20 min, to get home, i thought it would get better. after about another 10min of driving, feels like it is getting better. but still puzzled. if it does need a new clutch, about how much am i looking at. also if it only need oil what kind do i buy. hope you guys can help me out. other than that i got a good deal and it runs good. just did a tune up and changed the brakes. ill try and post pics this weekend. after you see it you guys are going to be mad after i tell you how much i spent, the body is in good shape,too.

Pop the hood and to the right of the brake master cylinder you will see a smaller resevoir attached to your clutch master cylinder. Fill that will brake fluid and have somebody pump the clutch pedal while you bleed the clutch slave. The clutch slave is on the front of the motor to the left of your exhaust manifold below the block stamp. Good luck and feel free to IM if you need any help.

not to f*ck with the topic, but the clutch sticking thing reminded me...
one of the things i noticed when i was replacing fluids, etc.. was that my clutch squeaks when I press down on it. I checked the pedal and looked around for where the squeaking noise comes from, but I can't find an appropriate place to add lubricant. Any suggestions (and also, what lubricant do people use). Thanks.

i would def. bleed the clutch slave....happened to me after replacing my clutch because there was air in the lines... Just like JDMH22hatch said...try this before doing what the mechanic said.
