clutch pedal pressure

[fiveiron]

ok heres the situation...sometimes when i push the clutch pedal down i can feel the pressure but sometimes i dont...if im sitting with it pressed for a while the pressure builds up...i recently replaced the master cylinder but it was doing this before that...i was actually hoping that was the problem...the pedal doesnt stick to the floor and it comes up fine when i take my foot off the pedal...any suggestions...

thanks. is there a way to test the slave cylinder?

I had the exact same problem and it eventually went away.

Pull the dust cover back from the slave shaft and check it for any moisture. If you find it wet it is leaking and should be replaced.

Have you tried bleeding the system completely?

i bled it already, but i didnt remove all the fluid when i did it. just the air. ill check the slave and see if it looks ok

If slave cylinder is wet it is bad, replace it. If not, bleed the system completely, like
everyone else said. there is only 3 parts to the system. Slave cylinder, hydrallic lines,
and master cyl. good luck.
