ok so last night i was driving, was in 1st gear just released clutch and started to move then nothing.just revs up, goes in all gears no grinding at all tho but takes a little more effort to get in gear.was waiting for hours for a tow truck but he said he couldnt even tow it because my car was too low so i just had a friend push it to his house, checked the tranny fluid looked fine no shavings or anything,i can have it in first, clutch out and it will just idle no noises or anything and i can push the car myself, could it be a clutch, tranny or something else, it feels kinda like the clutch doesnt disengage but im not shure. 95 civic ex auto to manual swap, btw tks for help

Check your clutch fluid level...my slave cylinder went out on my old civic, it also could be the master cylinder for your clutch as well. either one is a super easy fix. The only problem (or inconvenience) I had was I had to bend a new piece of hydrolic line for the cylinder. since the slave is right by the exhaust manifold, corrosion and heat just made that old line near impossible to get off. I figured it was worth it to spend the $5 and bend up a new piece rather then curse and scream at the old one.
