Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
Hey Guys,
Thanks for coming through for me in times before that I needed yall.
I have this problem, and It really has me bummed out.
My Clutch is no longer dis-engaging.
It's a longish story but here is the shorter version. (though still long)
Wednesday night,, going across town, stopped at a redlight, clutch in, 1st gear.
While stopped, it felt like somebody bumped me, then started lightly pushing me,, then the truck experianced a little bit of chatter, I finally figured out it was my clutch engaging, and had to yank Hard to get it out of 1st gear.
Then when I got into Neutral, I let out the clutch and the put came up very soggy, and only about half way. I stuck my foot under it, and pulled it up, and it worked fine for the night,, although I never helt the clutch in for very long.
Well today came my big scare.
I was sitting at a very busy intersection, waiting to take a left. I was with my 14yr old cousin. I was sitting in 1st gear, clutch in, and I was first in line at the redlight.
As I was sitting there, the clutch decided it was time to engage, and It shot me forward about 5 feet, well I hit the brakes really hard and killed the engine,, Pulled the truck into Neutral and re-started it. Well, about this time the light turns green, I push the clutch in again, try for second gear I get in, but WAY before I was ready to take off,, the clutch lets out again, and now I am nearly Perfectly in the MIDDLE of this very BUSY intersection. trying to get any gear, but the clutch won't dis-engage, and I can't get any gear. SO there I am,, Fumbling around, and to keep my story Short, I did a few wierd things until I figured I could turn my truck off,, stick it in 1st gear then start the engine,, well Off I was, taking off, chirping tires, and the truck jerking back and forth.
I got home. everytime I had to stop, I just turned off the truck and had to start off in gear. and shift without the clutch.
Well, There isn't a leak anywhere on my truck, the Clutch fluid is clean, and full. But the clutch pedal isn't doing anything, I just goes to the floor. I can hear the hydralic fluid swishing around somewhere, but aperrantly it isn't doing anything.
So now my truck is sitting in the shop, waiting for the parts to be found.
I need this truck by Monday Morning at 6:00 A. M. Hopefully the shop can get it done by then.
Anybody have had this happen?
I read earlier that it had happened to atleast one other person.
An comments would be appreciated.
Thanks a bunch for letting me tell you my story.

I picked my truck up on a Thursday and Friday night on the way home it started messing up. I nursed it to the selling dealer and I waited for 1 and a half weeks to get new truck back on road. I questioned my desicion to dump the auto for nanasecond. My slave cyl moulded plastic feed line split on the seem. A weird defect in the peice of tubeing on my new truck. Karma baby. My clutch fluid resivour (SP) was empty and there was a spot on the ground. Haven't had a bit of problem since.
