Default Clutch Sticks but not if Pumped

I have a 98 with a new replacement clutch in it and at the 2nd to 3rd shift it sticks to the floor only under hard accel. When I pump the clutch before the run it dont stick at all, but if i go and run it without pumping it will stay all the way down to the floor. Then after it sticks I pull it out with my foot and pump it more then its fine again. It dont slip and the fluid looks fine. Does this sound like air in the line or maybe weak slave or master. Thanks for the help.


Sorry if this was adressed before, I tried searching.

Steel braided line is probably getting to hott. It runs right next to the headers. It could be your steel braided line or slave cylinder. How many miles on the car? Has the master. cyl or slave cyl. been repalced?

Either air of moisture in the line. I would completely bleed it out.
