hydraulic clutch problem

ok,my old hydraulics went out for my clutch,so i pulled the tranny jsut to take a look around when i was replacing the master and slave. the clutch s only about a year old, well it was working fine after i fixed it and now sometimes the clutch pedal is hard as hell to push in and it wont go into gear. so waht is it? im pretty sure its either a bad pressure plate or bearing,or just ****y hydaulic stuff,but its all new.any ideas?

i would bleed the clutch lines before you go nuts on replacing stuff. More than likely theres just some air in the system...

thats what i thought to,but air shouldnt make the clutch so hard to push in. i bled it a lil bit and when i turned the bleeder screw the fluid came out kind of slowly? im confused, damn hydraulic crap.

if all the hydraulics are new, check your pressure plate, and check your clutch fork. and i hope your throwout bearing isnt sticking
