1990 240sx problems

Well I just got a 240 and it ran fine for a week. Well now it started getting cold and when I start the car I can't move till it warms up. It will not go into gear as if the clutch doesn't work. Then when I can put it in to gear it grinds some what. But when the car warms up it runs fine. No problems with shifting or anything.

I talk to some people about it and they tell me some cars do that when they are cold. But I think its the clutch... Anyone esle have this problem or knows whats wrong.

you may have air in the clutch lines.

You may need to bleed your clutch lines to get any air out and refill the fluid.

Well i just got my car sat. and it seemed fine until yesterday.
i'm not sure if its just because i've never driven a manual or if somthings wrong...

but if you go slow its fine, but then if you try to speed up the revs go up (watch i know is supose to happen) but then when i shift they dont go down... at all.. is my cluth slipping?

(sorry to take over your thread but i found it odd that it only started to do it when it got cold out to.)
