Clutch pedal acting up
In my EG civic for some reason my clutch pedal is sticking and not coming up all the way. I think it may because someone adjusted the pedal wrong before I got the car or that my slave cylinder is going out. When I left up the hood the salve cylinder seems compressed and not released when the car in park any suggestions.

Re: Clutch pedal acting up (TheAccordGuy)
i had the same problem you need to fix it now.... its your clutch slave cylinder. when i had it i ignored it and on my way home one day the clutch pedel fell to the ground and didnt come back up. there is just a leak in the cylinder and when enough fluid leaks out yours will do the same. CHANGE IT SOON

Check that the slave cylinder isnt leaking. I had a problem in my Prelude where the slave cylinder would just slightly leak overnight allowing the pedal to fall. IDK just a shot.

This same thing happened to me on the beltway i had to reach down while driving and pull it back up. The first time it happened I was about to sh*t my pants.
You should replace the master and the slave at the same time. Look on the floor behind your pedal and look for fluid. This is the sign of a bad master cylinder. GL.

Re: Clutch pedal acting up (crimsonv4mpire)
I would have to agree with the others and say slave
My car does something like that, but my clutch pedal jsut has like 2 inches of play before the clutch actually does anything.. I might change it tomorrow
Good luck on the repair

I was only stating that you might as well do both and have all new components, especially with the age of the vehicle. The masters are known to fail i have already replaced 2 so it's just to be safe.
