Default Help, Clutch problems in a del sol...

So I've noticed that the point my clutch engauges has slowly gotten further and further in. That is I use to be able to shift with only pressing the clutch about half way in. Now I have to push it all the way to the floor. I recently got my muffler fixed, and when they backed it off the floor jacks, it sounded like something dragged and made a weird sound. They said it was their equipment and nothing on my car was hurt. I'm not sure if the problem actually started then, but I just started paying more attention to my car and noticed it then...

Anyway, this morning I couldn't engauge my clutch. I couldn't press it in far enough. I turned off my car, shifted it in and out of first then restarted my car. This time I could get the clutch in. On my way to work I had to stop at some point and couldn't get it back into first. I tried the same trick and it didn't work. What I did was stop my car, put it in first, then start my car again. I made it to work. Now I'm not so sure I'm going to be able to make it home.

I have a 95 Si. It has about 130,000 miles on it and the clutch was replaced around 90k. There is an ACT stage II in there now.

Thanks for all the help!

I'm thinking I just need more "clutch" fluid. Dot 3 break fluid if you will. Where do I fill it up? I don't have access to a manual right now, can someone point me to some pictures? I've been searching all morning and have had no luck...

Thanks guys

sounds like a low fluid problem!
