do you still have pressure/resistance when u push in the clutch?
if not then u need to bleed the clutch, and if it is a cylinder, its probably the slave cylinder not the master

most likely master cylinder, real easy to fix. its probably a leak, thus the pressure that pushes the pedal back up is not present, replace asap otherwise youll get worse problems such as getting stranded because the pedal wont come up at all and pumping wont work, believe me, ive been in the situation with my last car, and remember to bench pump the cylinder.

lol... i have a stage 3+ and it seems to loose fluid some where... I have replaced ALL the lines, the master adn slave cyclinder, as well as have upgraded lines ( steel braided) its something random we go thro...
Close. If the springs on the clutch are worn it would stop releasing. Unless you are losing fluid i would not suspect a leak.
I assume the clutch is disengaging and it is just the pedal not coming back up... If the pedal goes down and it doesn't disengage - then i would suspect a leaking master or slave (or line).

lmao... it has its moments... from time to time i look like some one who doesnt know how to drive a clutch... their is NO play room.. unlike say a stage 2 or even stage 3 ( sprung disc)... my girlfriend was able to drive stage 2... wouldnt touch it with stage 3+ and simply refuses to try with stage 5...
i am N/a at the moment and i still have the stage 5 in..i down shift from 5th to fourth and accelerate and it will bark them..

before you go spending money do a leak down test.... fill your resivior up... and have some one press the pedal whle you are looking, ( use goggles ) and look for a leak.. should save some money if it is not a nessicity
