on a manual transmission the Clutch Slave Cylinder is located on the drivers side front of the transmission. You can locate it by first finding the clutch master cylinder on the drivers side of the firewall. Then fallow the plastic line to the front of the transmission.
To remove the slave you will first twist it then pull it out of the transmission.
The clutch slave and mater cylinder are replaced as an assembly.
This may be one of two things, i have just repaired one with the same problem, the first thing may be the clutch slave cylinder, this is what pushes the clutch plate to release it or engege it, if this part is bad it will not disengage the clutch and will not let you shift, the one i just repaired had a bad pressure plate this is a part of the clutch and the clutch needs replacing, the best way to check is to locate the slave cylinder on the trany and watch it as someone presses the clutch pedal to floor the cylinder should push the fork all the way out if it does then the problem is the pressure plate and a clutch replacement is needed, if the fork is not pushed out enough then the problem is in the slave or the master for the slave, here are the parts to help you locte them, as far as the clutch and the plate they are located inside trany housing and cant be seen without pull trany, also make sure the clutch fluid is full, this is located near brake fluid resivor, and it also uses brake fluid,hope this helps.
It would've been a good idea to replace the clutch while you had it apart.Although the clutch may have looked ok, looks can be deceiving.Id suggest you replace the clutch with a new unit from your local ford dealer and replace your rear main seal while you have it apart.They have been known to develop a leak at the clutch slave cylinder.
