Default Integra clutch pedal problem

Recently, I notice my clutch pedal randomly losing pressure. We checked my clutch slave and notice it was leaking so I bought a new one from napa and replaced it. Thinking everything was fine I just drove it around. Only for the clutch to get soft and randomly lose pressure again. Pretty sure it's not air since we bled it quite a few times. And it's not the master cylinder because it's still new.

Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions on this one? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Default air

if it was hard and slowly getting soft every time you press it then thats guaranteed air leak. How did you guys bled it. did you bled the master first then the slave. Also verify that the master isn't leaking just to make sure. If the clutch was worn already it would steadily be soft not change very time you drive it. good luck.

We bled it through the slave. Also there is no leak on the Master. The clutch is pretty old I don't think the orginal owner replaced it. The clutch does hold some pressure but randomly loses pressure. When I press the clutch agin after it gets soft , it seems fine again. Thanks for the input.

Not so much under the car just noticed that line getting wet...it only leaks when u step the clutch though...if ur seeing leaks under the ride its probably a bigger crack than just a hairline...if the lines wet there's ur problem...good luck again and I hope u find it.....laters homie
