Clutch pedal stiff

Grasping at straws to avoid transmission work.

My clutch pedal seems to be taking more foot effort to push in. Wondering if that could be related to master cylinder? Something else?

Thanks, both regulators were replaced last year.

Windows don't drop 1/4" when you open the doors

97 2.5

Windows drop when I unlatch the top but neither drop by the door latch.

I'm sure there is a thread for similar but couldn't find it.

Anyone?

Thanks.

Engine cover fastener replacement

97 model,

The locking fasteners on the engine cover are losing grip and one of the female connectors is missing entirely. Are these replaceable?

I have all the bolts.

Thanks.

97 base model - 2.5.

Replaced the AOS last fall and shortly after got a P0341. Thing is, she ran fine, and has ever since. But, I have to pass emissions test soon and a CEL is death to that.

oil level question

When I bought my 97 it didn't come with an owners manual so I've always been a little in the dark about some of the gauges. Mostly the one that shows oil level occasionally.
