95 camaro clutch pedal goes to the floorand barely disengages, is this a clutch issue or hydraulic issue?

The car almost moves forward even with the clutch to the floor. It makes it hard to shift. Would this be problems with the hydraulic slave or master cylinders? Or could it be a clutch/pressure plate problem?

As far as any non-hydraulic problems, that wouldn't be the Clutch Disc. Could be a problem with the Clutch Fork, Release Bearing, or Pressure Plate fingers.

As far as hydraulics being a possible cause, I'm not so sure you can see the Slave Cylinder action while installed, and I don't recommend doing it while uninstalled.

If it were me, I'd start by bleeding the hydraulic assembly. It looks like yours does not have a bleeder valve. If so, this is the procedure;

Loosen the master cylinder nuts to the end of the threads on the U-bolt.

Use a shop towel to clean the dirt and grease from the reservoir cap to avoid getting and foreign debris in the system.

Remove the reservoir cap and diaphragm.

Wrap a suitable piece of wire around the left-hand hood strut bracket, making sure the wire can be accessed from under the vehicle.

Raise and safely support the vehicle.

Remove the actuator cylinder nuts, then remove the actuator cylinder. Secure the actuator cylinder in the engine compartment using the wire previously installed.

Carefully lower the vehicle.

Grasp the actuator cylinder and depress the actuator cylinder pushrod about 0.0787 in. (20mm) into the cylinder bore and hold.

Have an assistant install the diaphragm and reservoir cap while holding the actuator pushrod in. Release the pushrod.

Hold the actuator cylinder lower than the master cylinder, vertically with the pushrod end facing down.

Press the pushrod into the actuator cylinder bore with short 0.0390 in. (10mm) strokes. Check the master cylinder reservoir for bubbles.

Continue until bubbles are not longer entering the reservoir.

Raise and safely support the vehicle.

Remove the actuator cylinder from the wire.

Install the actuator cylinder and secure with the retaining nuts. Tighten to 15 ft. lbs. (20 Nm).

Carefully lower the vehicle, then remove the wire from the hood strut.

Fill the clutch master cylinder reservoir with the proper type and amount of fluid.

The Gamut of Auto Performance is Attributable to Clutch

Auto aficionados concur that the key to yield power to the ground is the use of sophisticated manual transmission. No matter what car is used a sophisticated manual transmission can perform a tough job to alleviate the driving performance of a car. Nonetheless, a superb manual transmission is nothing without an ideal clutch to back it up.

To get the power from the engine to the wheels in the most efficient way reline on the clutch. The car or truck clutch engages and disengages from the flywheel in a matter of split-second. Next, it transfers all that torque through the transmission. This is the important role that clutch performs. Moreover, original equipment clutch kits must be fully equipped to answer the needs of the vehicle.

There are stock clutches that are especially designed to manage increased friction loads however, before long, a clutch replacement is inevitable. This circumstance necessitates upgrade to a better clutch brand.

No two drivers are the same and clutch manufacturers must realize said fact to respond to every driver's needs. They must combine a line of clutch parts that runs the gamut. Two of the most renowned names in the field of field of friction materials are ACT clutch and Centerforce clutch.

ACT clutch kits include pressure plate, release bearing/throw out bearing, disc, pilot bearing or pilot bushing, flywheels, and alignment tool. Because of the difficultly of setting up in case of breakdown, the manufacturer recommends that the entire clutch kit be replaced. ACT clutch kit is a rotating assembly hence; it should come as no surprise that the parts need to be well balanced to retain a vibration free drivetrain.

Centerforce automotive clutch kits, on the other hand, combine the power of 2 clutches into one unique system that can accommodate more pressure as the RPM increases. It also means that the Centerforce clutch offers more holding power without being difficult to release.

ACT clutches and Centerforce clutches deliver better friction materials, tougher springs, and more precise accurate engagement compared to stock clutches. The aftermath is a faster, durable and harder launches that boost engine performance.
