My 98 SVT with newer clutch and trans has a problem that just developed. When I release the clutch for the firt time of the day, the clutch will act weird. While relaseing the clutch it slips for a second. I push the clutch back in, and it runs fin the rest of the day. Other than that the clutch runs fine after that one slip. It only occurs in first gear...at least that the only gear I have noticed it in. Please help.

Sounds like a possible leaking rear main seal which is dripping oil on the flywheel overnight, then after the first use it gets burned off.

The problem though is that over time it'll get worse as the oil begins to contaminate the friction material on the clutch disc.

Check under the car at the vent hole between the tranny and the motor - my suspiscions of a leaking seal will manifest itself as a tell tale drip of oil coming out of this vent.
