Clutch pedal problem

[unit77]

When I first bought my sons 92 240sx,I was turning around and the transmission didnt want to go into reverse...I placed the edge of my shoe under the pedal and 'seemed' to pull it up a couple of inches.....I never was sure if I was actually pushing the pedal all the way down,as its much different from my Camaro...anyway,this weekend,while my son was driving,it did this again....now I am positive I pulled the pedal up....clutch cylinder looks new,fluid is full...clutch does/has always felt a little 'mushy' but didnt know if this was normal for these cars.....what do you 'experts' suggest?...:>)

try bleeding the slave cylinder

if that doesnt work try reposting this in the technical forum, the techs in there are really good

how is the free play in the petal?

EVERY car has free play in their pedal even if it is a minute amount. on the 240sx's hudraulic clutch system, the only way to adjust that is by moving the rod on the master cylinder out. your problem sounds like air in the system. bleed all that poop out. first things first, bleed the system. it should take less than 2 minutes.
