Very strange.
1st I would check all the mount points and connections for the pedal and
everything else in the system all the way down to the slave cylinder and
clutch fork including hydraulic hard line - see if something is worn, out of
place or loose
2nd I would bleed the system just to make sure there is no air in the line
and that the fluid is clean
3rd If the fluid is contaminated - flush the system and check the results
- contamination could mean a rebuild is needed
Seems to me I had a return spring in the master that wore down, lost some
spring force and caused a similar problem.

Subject: [Tigers] Clutch problem
On 2 occasions I have had my clutch pedal seemingly hang up. The symptoms
were: the pedal would go about 1/2 way to the floor with no resistance and
go the last 1/2 with normal resistance. But with the last 1/2 there was no
disengagement and I could not move into or out of any gear. Shut the engine
off, clutch would go back to normal and could shift again.
Hard to believe that it's a hydraulic problem. Something hanging up? What?
