old 69/70 Dodge power wagon (not really sure-came with the house)
neglected for years
clutch pedal slams to the floor
slams back up
no pressure at pedal
removed and cleaned master cylinder
vacuum draws fluid through slave
partial pressure at bottom of pedal stroke only
could the slave need cleaning?
starts and runs otherwise

Hi there, if the hydraulics are faulty cleaning will not do much to help your problem, fluid is by passing the seals internally, replace master and slave and re bleed as i don't think that you will get a good pedal any other Way.
