I had a brand new slave cylinder that leaked in the middle of its travel. It moved correctly, when viewed by eye, and actuated the clutch but when it got warm it would leak more and I would get less travel. Grinding reverse, hard to get in to first, etc. The problem was sporadic like you're describing so it was hard to diagnose. I knew I had a leaking cylinder though, when I took the rubber boot off of the slave cylinder and it had fluid inside. Take yours off, it should be dry inside. If not, get a new slave cylinder and take it apart and clean the insides before installing. The quality control at the manufacturing plants is poor and some of them get shipped out with machining and honing grit inside which tears up the seal.

That makes perfect sense i took it apart when i first got it and came apart to easy and did not fit right when i put it on. That and the rod is adjusted out on the master i have no free play. At allwell i know what im doing after work that and getting some bushings just for good measure she is old and needs the love.

Sorry silvey, but reading your posts is like reading gibberish. Can't tell what you've done, are doing, or trying to say. There is plenty of information out there about the slave cylinder and how it can go wrong, how to check it, and how to fix it. Good luck.
