Clutch Help Needed
So I went to install an oem clutch return spring today, because I bought my car years ago and found out that it was missing. I have been battling the Clutch B Circuit CEL from the pedal not returning to the full up position all the time. I thought the spring would fix that. After installing the spring, everything seemed fine. I jumped back up and went to test how the pedal feel was and the after pressing the pedal to the floor, it now sticks to the floor. I removed the spring and the clutch pedal has no hydraulics behind it. Is this a faulty master cylinder? Or is this a slave issue? I could not see any fluid under the car, that would indicate a leaking slave.

Most likely the master is the issue, they're failing inside the cylinder.

I bought a Tick master with a bleeder line and have not had an issue since.
Lots of people do the "ranger" method of flushing, but it doesn't solve the problem long term.
