Re: Trouble Shifting into Reverse and acceleration

It sounds like you will be replacing the clutch master cylinder, the 
line to the slave cylinder and the clutch slave cylinder. They go bad 
from contaminated (read OLD) brake fluid. If the line was upgraded to 
the metal you could reuse it. Check the brake fluid and see if it is 
dark and "chunky". Flush the brakes too and expect the seals to start 
leaking there also. Just some of the things to be expected when you 
buy a 20 year old car. On the tires check the air pressure.
