sounds like air in the in hte lines bring back up the cluthc by hand and try pumping it ? to build up pressure then try to bleed the blutch system to get out the air.. if thats not it u might have a problem with the interal seals...good luck

Thanks guys for the quick reply, The canister do have fluid, I tried to pump a few times and nothing happened. Actually I had this problem before and after a few pump it started working. I don't have any leaks.
How do I bleed the clutch?
Could I have problems with the clutch master cylinder.

i would tell u to bring back up the clutch 1st then get the car jacked up only the front end.. u know.. then look for the bleeder screw on my 280zx turbo my bleeder screw is located on the right side of the car nearist to the tranny by the front right wheel..2nd i would tell u to fill up the cluth fluid as high as i can get it.. DOT 3 brake fuild or if u have money to spend i would get dot 5 brake fluid.. next just open up the valve a little bit until u see fluid driping . let it drip into a pan etc.. " do not press on the clutch while u are bleeding the system.. i would tlel u to after about 10 min of bleeding the system tighting the screw then get into your z and pump your clutch to see if u get pressure..
repet until u are happy with your results.. thats what i did and belive me im very happy
