This started happening about two or three months ago. I started to notice that the clutch engagement point was unusually low to the floor, and the shifter was pretty stubborn getting into gear. This only happened when the engine was cold. After driving the truck for about 20 minutes or so it eventually got back to normal.

I noticed during the last month or so as the weather here started getting much colder that it has become much worse. The clutch is very soft and engages about one inch from the floor. It also has been sticking to the floor after being pressed and will pop back out after a second or two. It's impossible to shift gears with the clutch pedal pressed in while the engine is running. Trying to put the truck in reverse it grinds, so I have to shut it off then put it in reverse and then start it back up and then release the clutch.

Anyone have any suggestions as to what my problem might be? For what it's worth, my truck is not a daily driver. 10-20 miles per week at most. Thanks in advance for any advice.
