Default clutch pedal

hopefully others have had this problem and its not just me !

the clutch pedal seems sticky so to speack on my 1994 classic it comes up half way when releasing the pedal and some times takes a extra second or 2 to come all the way up ?

there's adjustment on the pedal in the footwell aparently, sounds like that needs to be adjusted.
Had a similar thing on my last classic except it just wouldnt come up fully following spirited driving unless I hooked my foot under it and lifted. I was told it probably needed adjusting but never got round to it before my engine let go and I got rid of the car

you can also get issues if the clutch fluid is old and over-heated, slave cylinder is sticky or the return spring missing.........

or the clutch is simply on its way out!
