Check for leaking fluid under the dash, where the pedal connects to the master cylinder & goes through the fire wall. That **** is nasty & can melt all the plastic parts under there & soak into your carpet. If the MC is leaking, replace it. It is really easy & only cost about $40. Once your done, blead the clutch & go...
