Default T56 Question

Hey guys. My transmission has been acting a little funny lately.
When I come to a light and put it in neutral, and I go to put it back in first sometimes it wont let me. I either have to let the clutch out a little a few times, or put it in neutral and let out all the way before I can put it in first.
I also feel a very very light clunk when putting it into first from fourth when coming to a light.
Today I put the car in second and went fine for about 20 feet and then felt something I can only describe as the opposite of slipping. It felt like it grabbed really hard.
I haven't lost any fluid from the reservoir. Does this sound like a slave cylinder issue?

From your description it seems to me that the transmission is OK, but that the clutch is not releasing fully. You may want to to check the clutch fluid level before getting more involved.

Alright I'll do that tomorrow.
One thing I forgot to mention is that when I push the clutch in it sounds like opening an old rusty door. lol.
