Default Clutch engagement problems on 92 civic. Need some help!!

Hey everyone, so here's the story. My clutch has been fine since i've owned the car. Than all of a sudden, my clutch engagement gets lower to the floor one morning. And the next morning the clutch doesn't engage at all and I can't get it in gear. I am going to adjust the clutch engagement level tomorrow but i don't know if that'll help. Any other suggestions/advise on the problem? thanks

Most likely your cylinder is bypassing. You can replace this fairly cheaply (&gt;$60 I'd assume). If the car is a 92 and no one replaced it, you got a pretty good life span out of it They're designed to wear out so don't think you did anything wrong with it.

Yep. it's time.

Pretty straightforward install. should take less than 30 minutes.

It's an OE replacement with a 1 year or 12,000 mile warranty. I won't even own the car past this next year so it's good for me
