Check for leaks in the clutch system. Just follow the line from the master cylinder all the way over to the slave on the front of the tranny.

If you're not leaking anywhere, you may have air in the lines or really old fluid. I would bleed out all the old fluid and replace it with new...that will also make sure there's no air in there.

Get on the floor of your car and look at the where the clutch pedal meets the firewall and check for leaking or seeping of any kind.I had a similar problem....checked every where couldnt find it....bled the clutch like 10 times and nothing worked....finally I noticed the tiniest seep coming from the clutch master,on the inside of the firewall,sure enough that was the culprit.Good luck
