When you go to the automotive store, the rebuild kit comes with instructions. It is really easy. The slave cylinder can be rebuilt but, I think you have to buy a new master
Check Clutch master and slave cylinders
the master and slave cylinder are a built in unit,there is no cable between them. there are piston'fluid connected. you can buy a rebuild kit for $9.00. But it is much better to buy a rebuilt master cylinder than try to rebuild it. Especially on ABS master cyclinders.
Leak in master cylinder? Leak in slave cylinder? Leak in tubing from master to slave cylinders?

a leak in the pressure line could do it. are you sure the seals in the cylnders are good? Is the slave not holding pressure, or is the master not building pressure? How did you bleed it? it makes a difference. Also, if the master or slave cylinders weren't bench bled before installation, it can take a very long time to bleed all of the air out of the cylinders.
Look for leaking fluid at the slave or master cylinder.
If it ain't the clutch itself then its prob. your slave or master cylinder.
your u joint could be bad
Check the lines between the cylinders to see if you're losing pressure. If that's not it try pushing the transmission plunger back while the clutch is in and readjust the slave cylinder's prong. If that's not it you either have a bad transmission or one of your new cylinders just died on you.
This is a far reaching question that needs more clarification. There are cylinders where the pistons are located. If you have a clutch then you have a clutch master and slave cylinder. On the brakes you have a master cylinder and wheel cylinders. And the beat goes on. You need to distinguish as to which cylinder you are referring.
Your 89 SHO has the same cable operated clutch as my 90 SHO. With a cable, there is no fluid and no master/slave cylinders for the clutch.
Master Cylinder for brake and clutch are located next to the ABS unit on the firewall of the driver side in the engine bay. Slave cylinder for clutch is located on the bottom of the transmission.
