Master or slave

hey guys!!! I'm back lol . So I finally got the car finish and inspected last Friday . I was so excited that after almost a year of prepping this car I would be able to finally drive it . So here's the deal I have been in and out of this car . I have done ever preparation possible to this car to make sure I will not damage it or ruin anything in this car . Today I was driving it and the clutch pedal started to stick to the floor . I had to use my toes to pull it back up . I found both the master and slave cylinders cheap for my model witch is a 1987 Mazda non turbo . Not sure how you guys categorize them . Immediately I tried to make it home that didn't go so well clutch finally has no pressure at all and if it's lifted it just drops right back down .. when I first got the car there was no fluid in it for clutch so I just filled and bled it . This made it work fine also the fluid is black as ever . Any advice ?

Either the clutch master, slave, or interconnecting hose is bad. Replace all three.

+1..you can do all 3 for about 100 bucks so why replace one with NEW when the other 2 old pieces will go later?
