Yes try all the options...master, slave, fluid, et el.  

However, I had same problem - it was a blown pilot bearing which I am in the
middle of. 

Good Luck

Subject: Clutch Question

Hi all,
I have question about my clutch:
Yesterday, all of a sudden, my van quit shifting.� At first it seemed to be
harder to shift into 1st and then it just quit.� There we're no warning
signs.� It shifts fine when the engine is off, but it stalls when I start it
in gear. The weird thing is that after trying a few times it seems to work
fine for a short time.� That makes me wonder if it's a hydraulic problem.�
But the pedal is still nice and firm. I didn't see any leaks.� Any ideas?
Thanks again,
Steve
