If I hold the clutch in for too long the pedal begins to sink and I lose
pedal pressure. If I let the pedal up and repress it, it works fine.
There
are no external leaks so I'm assuming that the master or the slave is
leaking by internally. Time for a rebuild? Probably been close to 25
yrs.
since they were rebuilt.
Thanks, Mark L

Hey, Mark:
Been there, done that. Yep...the seal in one or both cylinders is
bypassing fluid. I'll bet you could squeeze the dust boots of both the slave and
master and get fluid to drip out of one/both of them. I've had good luck
building my cylinders over the years, unless they are badly pitted.
Usually, though, a little emory cloth will do the trick.
Good luck,
Andy Walker
