sounds like you need a new slave cyclinder, so while you change that, you may as well change the master cyclinder

he already did that.

bleed your clutch again. Use a vacuum bleeder if the traditional method doesn't work for you.

In case you didn't know this, when bleeding the system, bleed it SLOWLY, or you'll just keep sucking air into the lines.

Re: (bad-monkey)

same exact thing happened to me...

open bleeder, push in pedal, get person on other side to close it.. repeat until you see new fluid/no bubbles..

I just replaced my master cylinder last Wednesday and ya...bleeding the system is a bitch. Replaced the cylinder in about 30 minutes...took about another 30 minutes just to bleed it...pump your slave cylinder back towards the reservior...that's where my problem was...it was a LOT of air.

or maybe you have some sort of hardcore leak somewhere between the master and slave...
