I have a 1997 Chevy K2500 with a 5-speed manual transmission. When the truck is cool (in the morning) the clutch pedal seems full. As the truck warms up and I shift gears in traffic the clutch seems to have a shorter and shorter pedal feel. If I pump the clutch pedal a few times I get the full pedal back for a a few shifts. The clutch Reservoir stays full (dark and gritty) and I have not seen any leaks on the ground. Is the clutch master cylinder bad?

If it pumps up, I would say either that or the slave is bad.
