I know some people had reported the pedal not springing back all the way when they had done the clutch pedal mod to shorten up the distance the pedal had to be pushed. There is a threaded metal rod the clutch is attached to and turning it one way brings the pedal closer to the floor, the other way makes it go further from the floor. When they had brought it too close to the floor they reported the pedal not popping back up all the way.

I'll check the fluid, and maybe I'll bleed some.
Aaron was directing me towards throwout bearing or pressure plate problems. I'm at 67k, and the clutch has been slipping at certain times and has gotten a lot softer. I think it's time to buy a new clutch.

So Aaron... ACT>JWT? Steve, you agree?

ya ben from the sounds of it if it was slipping already then it's prob. time for a new clutch , outch, sorry dude! and vitty, now don't quote me on the z's but all of the other clutch cylinders i've done the adjustment nut can't loosen while driving, it's attached to the pedal with a pin and you have to pull the pin which disconects it from the pedal before that nut can even spin, like i said not sure on z's but that's all the other ones iv'e done anyway,
