QuestionHow do I check clutch fluid in my car?Community AnswerFirst find the clutch reservoir, which is usually close to the brake reservoir [under the hood on drivers side]. Check your owners manual or purchase a repair manual for location. If you don't have a manual, look for a rectangular clear plastic or round metal container that would hold about a pint or two of fluid. It could have either a screw on cap, a rubber snap-on cap or a plastic snap-on cap.

QuestionWhy is my 5 speed manual Explorer hard to get in gear?Community AnswerIf the "hard to get in gear" you are describing is a problem with the clutch, there is probably either a problem with the clutch disk itself or a loss of pressure to the slave cylinder. So you need to either check the clutch or check the pressure/possibly bleed the slave cylinder. If the problem you having is happening within the transmission, you may need to change your transmission fluid or your tranny has gone bad.
