I have a 95 chevy camaro 3.4l that sat for about a year after driving for some time i noticed that the clutch fluid was extremely low i added fluid and was able to drive for a short time then out of no were i could no longer shift. I bled it through the slave cylinder until i saw no bubbles but the pedal still seems soft and has a slow return.

 

You probably have a leak in the system. The rubber boots at the clutch end like to crack.

 

^^ thats what im thinking... id start with the slave cylinder

 

changed both clutch master and slave cylinder and properly bled system only will go into 1,2,3,and reverse when engine off im thinking an internal tranny issue do you agree?

 

That's not necessarily a issue, Mine will only go into a couple every now and then when the engines off. I think it has more to do as to where everything stops in the tranny when you do turn the engine off.

Is it so you can't even eventually get it there at all, or just takes a little effort. I can usally get it to go with a couple tries.

 

And are you saying it won't go into gear at all when the engine is running?

 

It wont go into a few gears 4 and 5 at all when engine off none when running.

 

You can not go what the gears are doing with the motor off. A sync can not sync if nothing is turning. But Reverse in a none sync'ed gear. If you start the car with the clutch pushed and in neutral and it grinds going into reverse then you clutch is NOT disengaging. With your clutch pushed in Nothing in the tranny should be spinning. If you let the clutch out even in neutral it will start the input shaft spinning and it can take a little bit for it to stop. But if you walk up to a non running car slip it into neutral push the clutch in,,, start it and try to put it in reverse and it grinds your clutch is not disengaging. Note I did not say there was a problem with the master or slave cylinders. It could be the clutch itself.
