First things first, im not the best with cars but i can rely on my common sense to help save me some money...
the hose connected to the clutch slave is leaking fluid. the less fluid in the master the less the pedal wants to spring back. Now ive recently replaced the pivot ball so im guessing that thats not it and im thinking the slave itself is fine but no spring of the pedal. does this have to do with the hose?
ive also taken off the slave and bleed it as much as i can. the brass peice that pushes out is pushing out too.
