T-56 Clutch Disengaging Issues. Help?!
I had my Mccleod Clutch PP and T.o. bearing installed at 72,000 Miles. Never gave me a problem and grips Very well, until recently. i HAve driven about 1000 miles in a week, which puts me at 103,000 miles toward the end of the week the car has issues getting into gear, especially from a stop, once the car started going there was no issues. until today. i let the car sit for about 12 hours, i come back to it... cant NOT put it into first, i have to turn the car off put it into first, start it then disengage the clutch.. car drove fine in first, but still fought to get it in any gear. after driving it for a few miles, no improvement. Basically what i determined is that the clutch is not fully disengaging, even when the pedal is pushed fully to the floor. i checked the Reservoir and it is 1/2 full.
any help would be great appreciated. this is my DD and can not afford much downtime

Update: today when i went to go and start the car to see what else could be wrong. i started it, left it for a few seconds. then i heard a clicking noise coming from... the clutch area :/ in sync with the engine RPM's sooo something is defiantly wrong and it seems as if i may have to replace my clutch of less than 30,000 miles just by the sound of the issue would the clutch disk need to be replaced? or the pp also? the pp was new when the clutch was put in.

Until you added the part about the clicking noise, I thought it sounded like air in the hydraulic system, or a faulty master cylinder. The clicking would appear to indicate a problem with the T/O bearing.
But maybe the experts here will have some better ideas.
