Not so fast, friends. I think your condemnation of the clutch master cyl is premature. I suspect much simpler source, like just normal cold weather and coldstart phenoms. Here's the backyard test: Is there gear-grinding, or just stiffness and quiet resistance? If gears are making noise, Yahshure, the clutch isn't disengaging enough - look at low fluid, air in line, and possibly master cyl wear. If it's merely stiff, I think it's seasonal. I had a wonderful '84 T, and it always resisted going into 1st and 2nd in cold weather, until warned up - Seattle is mild all winter, like L.A. - 40s,50s. Also, Don't forget to check trans oil level, and trans oil type, like 10-30 not 75W.
