Clutch hydraulics. Replace the master and slave cylinder. Might as well replace the hose while your in there too. That way it's all done for another 10-15 years.

I agree-clutch hydraulics. A seal is leaking, and fluid getting in front of it. Chuck it and spend 100 dollars and replace both master and slave cylinder and hoses while you're at it. Then it's really done.

What these guys said. Replace master and slave, hoses, and line. Also make sure you bleed it properly so there is no air bubbles

try the slave cylinder first before the master. make sure you fully bleed it and if that doesnt help, move to the clutch master cylinder.
