Default To anyone with sticking clutch pedals

It could be the pressure plate getting weak or just plain getting stuck, my cars getting a low pedal after a beating, doesn't stay on the floor but only comes back a few inches if i jam gears threw 4th i have no clutch if i let out in 3rd have just enough pedal to shift. today when it happened i started playing with the pedal, just kept lightly pushing on it and felt a bump and the pedal came back up so definately a mechanical issue. just something to think about testing before getting an expensive or stock master and still have the problem.

The springs can get weak from extra heat because of slippage from exceeding it's power capacity. How much power are you making?
