[s-cars] Clutch pedal won't come back out

[QSHIPQ at aol.com]

If the clutch works when you push it in, but it won't come out, it's  more 
likely the master.  Lift it with your toe until you get home.   Yes, this is a 
known issue.  Bleeding it might help, you can do this as a  roadside repair, 
btdt.  The slave bleed screw is 11mm wrench (some  replacement aftermarkets were 
8mm some were 7mm).  Push the pedal down  leave it at the floor and open the 
bleeder screw, this should cause a steady  drain of fluid from the slave 
bleeder.  After you get new fluid out of it,  close the bleeder screw, and pump the 
pedal about 30 times.  Then crack the  bleeder again, and you should get a 
little air burp, do this until there is no  air when you crack the bleeder.  
This should help you get to where you can  do the R&R.

Clutch has started misbehaving.  Push the  clutch into the floor, and it
stays there.  Won't come back out.   Finally figured out if your pull it back
out with your toe, that it heals  itself.

Is this a known issue?
