my clutch, my clutch!!!

ok guys here is the thing

when i push the clutch for a little time, lets say i am waiting at a stop, the clucth get stuck to the floor and it grips very low. When i go on the other gears, if i shift fast, the clutch is perfect. The problem is only when i stay on the clutch.

what could be my problem? could an air bubble be it? Could it be a leak on the cylinder over the tranny? I checked inside the car and there is no leak on the pedal lever and the piston there. could it be a bad pressure plate or clutch? The clutch only has 15 k miles

please help, i want to get rid of this before winter

Either your master cylinder or slave blew a seal.

clutch

spooledUP7 is dead on. If the clutch res.is still full, the seal on the piston in the clutch master is bypassing pressure. Rebuild(if the bore is ok) or replace. If the fluid is low, check again for leaks, at the slave, or the firewall just below the clutch master, both inside and out. Look for peeling paint, a classic sign of brake fluid.Rob
