Bleed the hydraulics or replace the master cylinder with a quality item then bleed the system. Cheap MCs often cause issues, sooner or later, normally sooner though.

If its the same as the L series then check the bracket the slave mounts to, it flexes and cracks causing same issue. Get someone to press the pedal while you watch it

Not the same, its a "conventional" separate master & slave with piping - and the slave is mounted inside the bell housing.

Do these have a gear selector/roll pin set up? Sounds very much like my Saab.

First it was hard to get in gear, then I lost reverse, then 1st, then all gears.

The split/roll pin snapped and couldn't select gears.

Does it go into gear any easier with engine off?
