Master or slave cylinder leaking or someplace the pressure is leaking out.

It almost has to be a bad slave cylinder. I wouldnt bother adjusting the pedal, since that isn't the problem.

Look for a leak. I am guessing that is the problem. Check under the dash and look for it along the firewall. You can also remove the clutch rod and see if it is leaking under the boot at the slave. Check your fluid if it sticks to the floor.

I would say its the master not holding pressure.

Same thing happened with my old 2G, ended up being the master cylinder.

I bleed the clutch couple times and now its fine but when i was down there i saw some sort of oil leaking pass the the slave cylinder near the rear differential (guessing here) i think..dont know what it was..but it was leaking not a lot just maybe a stream of fluid then it stopped..if its a dumb question take mercy on me
