Clutch troubles.

I've got an 87 n/a and when I have it in 1st gear and off, clutch fully depressed, it seems to grab and move it forward randomly, like I'm not depressing the clutch pedal fully. I checked fluid and it looks good, could I need to bleed it? If so, how do I do that properly?

If it was working properly and failed, and you fluid level is OK, bleeding the system probably won't help. The system possably has an internal leak. Fluid is blowing past an internal seal. Take the master cylinder off. Two nuts inside side of firewall. The slave can be removed from the top of the engine. If the cylinders are rebuildable your in luck. A new master and slave, and stainless covered hose will set you back about $100. Bleeder is on top of slave, acessable from top of engine. RX7 Maven
