Howe Throwout Failure?

How many have experienced failure of their howe TO bearing? Mine gave up the ghost. Started feeling strange a few days ago and not working properly today. Sort of on and off. Noticed my fluid level a little low, bled the thing and it worked OK for about 20 shifts and then will stick to the floor. Is the quarter master throwout bearing the answer?

Thanks

From what ive read, QM is the way to go. I've been having issues with my Tilton unit and havent had time to jaCk the car back up since school started. I believe my tilton unit is binding. What a hassle.

I ordered a QM so I will put it in as soon as I get it. I am getting it ship shape as my vehicle needs have changed and I am going to sell. I will sure miss the fun of a smooth driving 5spd SC400.
