[DML] Re: Clutch problems

[<oholler@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for all the suggestions and insights.
Replaced the clutch master and slave cylinders and it's back to smooth shifting. Special thanks to Rob Grady for overnighting the parts and to Marc Levy and Tom Swingle for help installing. (and for showing me that black stuff in the clutch fluid is the rubber seals breaking down.)
Moral of the story: change your fluids every 2 years with fresh, or replace your parts every 6 or so years.
