hey guys,

got a problem with my clutch, after i dont drive it overnight the next day when i go to change gears the clutch pedal just goes straight to floor and i need to sort of pump it a few times before it will pop back out to normal again,

anyone got an idea of what the problem could be?

cheers

Kyle

i had a similar issue except mine went to the floor and stayed there. it was caused by the clutch fork pivot bolt inside the gearbox being snapped. but in your case i'd say it's more to do with the master cylinder or possibly slave cylinder.

i had a similar problem in my 2jz cressida, i went to drive it one day and the pedal was on the floor, found out to be 2 things, one the clutch master cylinder had a leak in it and would constantly drain the fluid, not a good thing with a cushion button hydraulic clutch, and when it ran out of fluid altogether air got into it and didnt make it work properly after fluid went back in and clutch mastercylinder was replaced, although the first clutch master cylinder melted due to the excessive heat from the turbos exhaust housing (was running an 800hp turbo (BIG)) lol and set the fluid on fire which dripped down to create a bit of a fireball under the car lol (Note: always have a heat sheild or turbo bag with your turbo!) but yeh check both of them

      You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.

      98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.

      95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
