Well, yes, 20,000 miles would be a bit premature for a TOB to start failing ..... however, if the previous owner sat at a lot of lights holding the clutch down for long periods of time, it is possible it's warn.

Whether it's a going bad TOB or air in the master or brake lines ...... the car probably won't grenade on you before next weekend.

When you bled the clutch, did you submerge the bleeder hose in a jar of fluid ... ??
