First check to see that the cooling system is full of coolant. If the radiator is full, then check your thermostat to see if its installed upside down. If a thermostat is installed upside down, the coolant temperature will not...
After looking at the wiring diagrams for your car, I cannot find any 30 amp fuses in the fuse box location you describe. I see all different sizes up to an 80 amp. Most big ones are 40 or 50...
To answer your question it is the transmission and clutch. The transmission will need to be disassembled and the shift rod bushings linkage and the gear checked for wear or broken bushings and bearings. When the transmission is out, then...
