There was alot of free play in the pedal, dont know if I would call it spongy though. I did adjust it out. Didnt really help any. Also the fluid does seem dirty. I have never had to add any so I just assumed it wasnt leaking. Ive also changed the rubber hose to a SS hose. I noticed today after I adjusted the free play, I can hear a fluid/air swoosh sound when I pushed in the clutch with hand my while I had my head under dash. I figured that was normal though.

I never really had this problem awhile back, it just kinda showed up one day. At first I thought it was just me, but now I dont think thats the case. I use to smoke 1st and snap 2nd, there is no way I can do that now.

I will change the master and slave and see what happens.

It's probably a leaking master cylinder, but changing the slave at the same time is a good idea.
