Default Clutch problem

Ok here's the problem.....today the clutch engaging point got real high. before it would be in the middle now it's at the top. So what i did was re-bleed it and it was good for about 6hours, then it started to rise again. Also i know the clutch is wearing down, it only has 2000miles on it. It still grabs real good

That's your problem. You have a leak somewhere.

just checked for signs of leaking. nothing. Looked right underneath the dash, master cylinder and checked slaved cylinder. nothing. Can opening the cap and pumping the clutch put air in the system?

yes i double checked all the lines. i open up the needle and keep pumping the pedal until a stream of fluid comes out then shut the valve. i leave the cap off and keep filling when needed.

Check the master cyl. nut on the adjusting rod. If it is loose, then spin the rod till you like the engagement height and then tighten the nut reall good. Mine came loose once after replacing the master cyl. because I didn't tighten it enough. Worth a look anyways.
