Sometimes my clutch sticks to the ground. Does this mean anything?

sounds like your slave cylinder may be bad or you don't have fluided for the slave. check the fluid levels if its dry you well have to bled the line. :dsm:
 
To me, it seems that I just have to bleed it, because it only happens on occasion and I just put my toe under it and it goes right back up. The car still runs and shifts good.

Thanks for the reply,
Shane
 
Dude, check around you'r clutch master cylinder on the firewall, inside the car and under the hood for leaks and check your slave cylinder for leaks. 9 out of 10 times one of these two are the culprit. one of these leaking out while the pedal is depressed will cause you'r pedal to stick to the floor. both are very inexpensive and easy to replace. heck might as well just replace both and get rid of the headache! Well thats my two fiths of a nickle. good luck!
 
+1 on draining out the old fluid, putting fresh fluid in it, and bleeding several times until you're sure all the air is out of the lines.
