Need Some Quick Basic Info
I have a 98 cavalier Z24. My clutch pedal over the past few years will suddenly go soft and fairly low to the floor somedays. After usually a week or so it stiffens up and is like brand new, and will stay like this for months on end. I was going to rule out a leaking slave cylinder but the thing that catches me is where it is leaking. Typically i bealieved that if it was a slave it would be dripping from the bell housing. Which is the one with the bleeder on the top right side of what i believe is the bell housing. It is leaking off of where the drivers side CV goes into the tranny. This makes me think maybe a lose hose or possibly the master cylinder? Any help would be greatly appreciated

So I took another brief look at it and it actually doesnt seem to be leaking at all, I have been checking the clutch fluid everytime after driving and no level change so I am starting to wonder maybe i should just bleed the lines or change the fluid entirly. It is very black and I read that meant the fluid caught moisture. One more thing is when i drive it for like say a half hour or so the pedal returns to normal position. What do you think?

So before I tried the master or slave I thought I would flush old black fluid and put new fluid in and now I cannot get any pressure to the clutch. First time opening the bleeder was fine lots of fluid and a bit of air. After the first time that was it complete lose of pressure, sometimes it will drizzle out sometime a bit of a stream and sometime nothing. Still no leak frm bell housing or master. So I will assume master then? What do you guys think
