Check your MC, lines, and calipers for any potential leaks. Start with a brake bleed and flush out all the old fluid and make sure new stuff is getting to all four corners (grab a friend to help you do this). It may be as simple as some air in the lines or a leak. If neither of these solve the problem, you may want to consider swapping out the MC for a new unit.
Thanks man, I went and bought a "new" master cylinder (not rebuilt) today, and as soon as I get time, I'm going to slap it on. Would too much play in the clutch pedal cause the problem I'm having with my shifting? Or could it be in the cabel?
