Got in my car today and all of a sudden I notice the clutch pedal is very easy o push in till the engagement point. Car has an act 2600 pressure plate. It does it once the car is warmed up. It still goes into all the gears fine. It does not have a ss clutch and its not making any funny noises. What's the deal?

It seems to be harder to get in gear now, but still can. Going to inspect the clutch line in the morning.
 

might be the master cylinder, it's happened to me more times than I care to remember

$140 from extremepsi.com... I'm assuming its not air in the system. I did knock the cap off the other day. I'll report back after I inspect the line.

Checked the fluid reservoir, lower than minimum line. Putting fluid in it tomorrow. Checked the clutch line and didn't see any visible leaks.

usually Masters and slaves go out together. Ive also found out that OEM Masters allow more adjustment than the normal Autozone/Kragen Crap. I am using a OEM Master after going through two different Aftermarket Masters but I am using a Kragen Slave Cylinder that seems to work ok.

I installed a new oem master cylinder but haven't bled it yet, just topped off the fluid. Is it normal for the pedal to want to go straight to the floor? The old master was leaking in the interior side plus it looked like the original one for the car so I'm pretty sure that was the culprit.
