If pumping the clutch helps, then it sounds like the master or slave cylinder. If it can't be bled, then maybe it needs to be replaced. I have done it and I did not have a problem getting it bled. I have replaced both the master and the slave at different times.
If you replaced the clutch yourself, let me know what you ran into since I want to do it soon.

hey thanxx for the words of wisdom...BUT I already replaced my sleve cylinder which leads me to believ its the slave master.. a few people told me the other day, when replacing "this" system you should replace the whole thing ..slave cylinder,master...it comes as a one piece from Ford and thats the best way to do it period...
