Default Clutch problems....

This is more than likely just like everyone elses.

Bought my car in SC, drove all the way home with no problems. Save for this.

Stand on the car in 1st, push clutch, ****** 2nd, dump clutch, press clutch to go to third. This causes me to loose my clutch hyrdaulics. Pedal sticks to the floor, have to pump it up with my foot before I can shift again.

Stop at next gas station, check level. Almost empty. So I fill it, thinking maybe it was launching hard enough to cause levels to go out of wack and suck in air??

Repeat the above, have no problems. Drive the remaining 400 miles with no problems.

Get back in town, feel like being obnoxious. So I go behind my work to do a donut. Start in 1st, go to grab 2nd and I loose my hydraulic pressure again.

I bled the clutch and sucked out/filled the resevoir multiple times. It did not fix the original problem.

Should i try to bleed the entire system again?

Or is somehting in my hyrdaulics going bad? The PO said the man he got it from did a clutch, but did not know anything about the hydraulic system.

Thanks, Chris
