Now my clutch is really soft with the contact only at the top of the pedal. Could this be air in the system? Poor instalation? Manufacturers defect? I have put about 10 000km on the new clutch and feels no better now that it is broken in.

The Brake Master cyclinder and the clutch are the same , but on the top of the trans is a bleeding nipple. The principal is the same, pump , pump , hold , bleed . Made a big difference on my '95 2012 Lotus Evora --------- 95 Mystique MTX - GONE 395,000 Kms --------- Both Zetecs '97 Contour Mtx - stock - GONE
