Sorry for the long explaination. Clutch became spongy so I inspected clutch master cylinder and found leakage on the inside firewall. Purchased new/reman clutch master cylider from O'Reilly's, installed and bled according to Haynes manual. Everything seemed to go off without a hitch. Then completely lost clutch pressure but regained complete pressure on next stroke. Bled, re-tryed, failed, bled, re-tryd, failed etc etc. Now if I hold minimal pressure on the pedal all is fine and if I tap to pedal once before depressing seems to be fine. Otherwise may or may not have any pressure. Long story short - normal pressure or no pressure. I'm thinking faulty (new) clutch master cylider. HELP!!!!
