Hi all,

Just wondered if any of you have experienced this situation and what the fix was:

Clutch engages when pedal is very close to floor. I thought there was air in the lines, but no change after all clutch and brake lines bled with pressure bleeder. No leaks at master or slave. Bled second time, no change. Bled again the old fashioned way with slow push on the pedal with the bleeder screw open using a bleeder kit from FLAPS. Still no change.

So, are we talking internal seal leakage? Replace both slave & master?

Thanks in advance for any help!
