It just changed overnight? It's probably the slave.

Press/depress the clutch many times (50) and check the clutch level again. It could be your rubber hose leaking or the slave is gone. You can also have someone press the clutch and you look for any fluid leaking right by the tranny (where the slave and rubber hose attach). Does the clutch feel normal or losing pressure?

It's cheap & easy to rebuild both. Well, reinstalling the master can be difficult. + one on the lower line. And don't forget there is TWO bleeders.

The clutch slave does fail from time to time on these cars.

Unbolt the slave - is there fluid leaking from it? Is there fluid leaking from the line?

(If you need one, I have a slave with clutch line and dr. side motor mount that I'll sell cheap - PM me)

dude man try using punctuation to make your posts readable. also try forming sentences longer than 3 words. i have to read your posts like 4 times to figure out what you are saying.

my guess is to bleed it quite a few times over and over then go from there.

It IS incredibly hard to read. Capital letters, commas, and periods don't take any more time once you get into the habit.
