now that its in the right place.

oK i need some Fiero (86 GT 4spd) advice on my clutch, it seems to stop working. It has progressively gotten worse as in its been hard shifting, which made me think there is air in the line.Which im 99% sure there is but there still is problem still a problem. When the car is running and i try to put it into gear it doesnt grind it just wants to move the car forward. . My question is this, if my clutch has never slipped out of gear and still pulls hard under load, is my clutch fine and its just a hydraulic issue. I tried bleeding the system by myself, but then i was told about the power bleed. a couple mechanics that i talked to, who were somewhat shaddy anyway, told me that there is no way that there is hydraulic problem if there is still fluid in the reservoir. Anyway i just need some quick advice, i dont want replace my clutch obviously. One last question? is the slave in the back. thanks.

Get a proper power bleed done on the clutch and go from there.  Where are you located?  I have a home made power bleeder here that works fine.  Or you can take it to a shop and get them to do it.  Mine is not portable as you need an air compressor to use it.
