Default Some1 Diagnose This Problem

Im confused. Ill be driving in my car for about a half an hour or so, when all of a sudden Im in first gear hitting 5000 rpms and going about 5 mph. Same in 2nd. I try to accelerate but cant get past at most 20 mph. Clutch problem? Idk. You tell me. Keep in mind I just replaced my slave and master cylinder cause my master went and slave needed to be replaced because the system couldnt be bled.

ok you need to be A LOT more specific here
are you hittin the clutch and trying to change gears and cant?
OR
is the engine itself (car) hesitating under accelration.

We need to isolate the problem here...if its a tranny problem it will be either gear specific or constant...If its an engine problem it will be present under acceleration only...If you are close to me...let me know ill meet up.

hmm, sounds like a clutch problem to me. it's slipping either b/c it's worn, or because it's not clamping to the flywheel hard enough.
