Thanks again to all the fine folks on the list that offered advice on my
clutch problem Sunday.

OK, Sunday morning I went out to the van, popped the lid and looked at the
motor. Game plan was to disconnect the slave cyl off of the tranny and
narrow down the prob to hydraulic or within the clutch assy. I looked in and
there was the slave assy dangling from the van! both bolts had aged and
blown out! Cool, except it's Easter morning and no one's open. I started
looking around the van to find something to dissemble to use the bolts and
nuts. My GF suggests using the license plate bolts (she knows nothing about
cars), I look down and sure enough they'll work! I popped them on the slave
cly and drove home with my plate taped in the back window  :-)

Thanks again!
