clutch slave cylinder

Hello everyone, so my slave cylinder died on me the other day and my clutch pedal would floor and not come back up. My brother and I went through the trouble of switching both the master and slave cylinder. First we installinstalled the new master, bled it, she ran like a beauty, then out of nowhere the slave died on me.we replaced it and she was running again, until suddenly my pedal floored. We checked it and the new slave was gushing out fluid. Does anyone know what seems to be the problem? I have a 1988 Rx7 GTU non turbo.

Sounds like you just got a bad clutch slave.I'd see if you can take it back and get another one.

I changed the whole System( I mean clutch,PP,throw out,both master and slave..etc).
I bled the **** out of it and it felt good.
I go from a stoplight and shift to 2nd..BAM..to the floor.

The system had air that was trapped.This system is picky at times and has the tendency to hold a bit of air,so it requires BLEED<BLEED>BLEED!!!
