OK - I'm stumped.

Doesn't sound like the CSC or hydraulics to me. That system will usually not disengage the clutch when it fails. Or it could get in a bind with the clutch disengaged, but you weren't using the clutch at the time.

I haven't heard of a clutch with that much slip fixing itself. Same for flywheel problems.

I don't know much about the 6MT (I have rebuilt Ford Toploaders) but can't imagine what would cause your symptoms.

If it were the u-joints, the driveshaft would be laying on the road.

I dunno. I hope somebody can figure it out.
