I have a weird issue with my manual trans 4x4 1985 chev custom delux. I start the truck and then put it in 1st then have to rev it to get it to roll and then when revs get a little higher I get a grinding sound until I shift to a gear above ...there might be a slight burning smell of clutch ...I might just be imagining it. there apears to be 3 mm of clutch fluid in the resevoir and I cannot unscrew the cap off of the resevoir ...any ideas what thses symptoms are indicative of?
