Default clutch pedal feels soft

My clutch pedal doesn't feel as stiff as it used to be before. It feels soft, like u don't feel much resistance from the pedal when u let off the clutch. When i put it in gear and let off the clutch it feels soft, like it's not pushing out. When i'm in neutral it feels like how it should when i let the clutch out.

recently i had a bad master cylinder and i changed it but still the same thing. I didn't change the slave because i bought new about a month ago. If the master went bad would it cause the slave to go bad as well?

Well right now i'm thinking my clutch is bad, what do u think?

mine did this same **** 2 weeks ago.. i could not figure it out.... but my clutch grabbed really good....

i have a b16 but does not matter... but on the front of my tranny it was the slave cylinder. i replaced my master, all the fluid...... bleed it many many times.... well my slave was not pushing out enough... so i replaced it.. 16 bucks .... works now ...

hope this helps... when u put it in make sure it's not broken or anything... and does not move.. mine did... had to get the screws redrilled...

hmmm, i think i'll give it a shot then changing the slave cylinder even though it's only a month old. Would a bad mc cause even a brand new slave to go bad? Cause I was driving around with a bad mc possibly when i first did the swap which was about a month ago
