wtf clutch pedal sticks to the floor..
i recently pulled my tranny. and put everything back in, but i didnt replace my release baring (throwout baring?) and i think i bled my release cylinder correctly, but maybe i didnt. But the clutch pedal just sticks to the floor.. Could my release baring be shot? or is my system not correctly bled?

It's easy, I had this problem recently so I rebuilt the slave, but the problem was still there. So I bought the master rebuild and that did the trick, my reason for sticking to the floor was that the master cylinder return spring was completely worn out.

i dont see why my spring would wear out from putting a new tranny in, but ill put in a new slave/release and see if that works..if it doesnt ill check the master.

Rather than rebuilding suspected part, why not change the whole master cylinder that has new seals, springs, piston etc? These cars are old. Just change the whole part especially if it has springs in it. They're not very expensive and it will last far longer than just changing a few parts in there. You don't want a brake master or a clutch master fail on you. A clutch slave is another part that's cheap to replace.
As for the original topic, it's caused by:
1. air in the lines
2. bad clutch slave
or
3. bad clutch master
It's always #2 or #3 since #1 shouldn't happen if you don't open the lines.

I put a new bearing in but didn't lube the spline a whole lot(Shot some canned Lituim grease on it) I didn't gunk it on you think it'll be good still?
Anyways. I am having the same problem on my turbo conversion. The Mastercylinder is bad.
The pedal will go all the way down and only engage/disengage at about 2 inches from the floor.
It has made starting from a stop pretty tricky on a rebuilt engine.
I have a New Slave cylinder which I got for like 25 bux from CHecker.
Mazdatrix SS clutch line.
And Old (Supposedly rebuilt Master)
I would recommend to contact Mazdaformance.com
These guys rock. They are a dealership in Texas which HOOKED us up on the Seven stock drive when stuff went down hill. I believe they give you a 15% discount as well! W00T!
Anyways keep it in the Rotary family! Screw Nopi. They ain't showed us no LUV!

I just bought a new slave.. i got it off ebay for 32 bucks shipped. You can get new masters/salves off mazdatrix, the slave was around 40 some bucks without shipping though
