hi, quick question. 93 chevy s10 blazer 2wd v6. Recently had a blown head gasket, had it repaired, and now i notice that my car stopped leaking water so quickly, but when i depress the clutch it start to squeel. i also noticed it's EXTREMELY difficult to push the clutch in, and it slips when trying to put it in gears. I think this is a clutch problem, but I've heard many say it's a water pump problem, clarification would be great. In my personal opinion, I think it is both. I bought this truck in Oct. 06, and it only cost me 1200, I repaired the head gasket, which was cheap because I didnt have it machined just used some K&N head gasket repair fluid. it worked great though, I know this is only a temp fix, but I would rather buy a new vehicle if I have to sink a lot of money into it. Anyways, could anyone give me some definitive answers? I think it's probably both the water pump and the clutch, but if anyone has a different suggestion it is greatly appreciated.

Water pump and clutch are at opposite ends of the engine. This is a clutch problem. Noise when pushing the clutch are likely trow-out bearing and the difficulty to push could be that it's worn to end and all symptoms mentioned would indicate that a new clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearing, check or machine flywheel, smear of lube on pilot bushing, inspect linkage etc., should take care of this. Parts propably not all that bad and some time to do it,
