Mine ran low on fluid and the clutch stayed on the floor. Had my phone not been dead where I could have pulled up the site, it would have saved me a $110 tow bill, and if I had of found this 3 months ago, I'd still have my 1990 Bronco. All I did was refill the clutch master cylinder and pump the clutch pedal about 100 times, and it came back. Thanks, hope it stays up!!

Default late to the party

I know I'm late but If anyone uses this in the future I had the same problem. wasn't catching until the last 1/4 of a stroke. ended up figuring out the rod that came in the new master cylinder wasn't long enough to fully engage the clutch. welded a piece to extend it another inch and a half or so and it works like a charm. hope this helps someone
