The vehicle has sat still for a couple of months and when pressed the clutch pedal "sprung " to the floor. It takes its fluid from the brake reservoire and is not low. However there must be a loss of fluid I imagine at either master or slave cyl. Both are odd...master seems to be part of the pedal and slave is more like a thrust bearing inside the bell housing! Great! Typical French design. Has anyone had any experience with this problem. Could I be lucky and find it has just got a master cylinder problem? No bleed nipple is evident?? Help much appreciated.

same problem on my 56 plate traffic!
Any way of diagnosing which is failing without removing the gearbox?

There is a bleed nipple for the clutch, located several inches from the gearbox housing behind the radiator. You will need as 10mm pipe spanner to adjust.
Hope this helps
