Hi PC1MACMAN,

Thank you for the donation and sorry for the delay in replying.

The symptoms indicates the clutch master cylinder is failing and leeaking internally. Check the clutch fluid level and check for leaks at the slave cylinder and master cylinder ( check the pedal push rod end for leakages from the master cylinder).

Perform this test.
Start vehicle.
Depress clutch and shift into 1st gear.
Hold the clutch and wait for 10 seconds.
If while waiting, the vehicle seems to be engaging as if the clutch is being released, turn engine off to prevent it from moving forward. This indicates the clutch hydraulic system pressure is leaking and would need to be repaired.
