my clutch doesnt engage until the pedal is completly flat against the floor, and even then it will grind occasionaly. i have the bracket that attaches to the pedal on the master cylinder backed out all the way. do i need to replace either the master or slave cylinders? how would i know?

Have someone check to see how much the clutch fork moves when you push in the clutch. I think it's supposed to move about 1/2", someone else can probably back me up here. If you're not getting much movement, you could have a bad master or slave or a soft hose.

Check at the bottom of this page:

for where the clutch fork should be in the housing, might need to shim it.
