I've posted this on other threads about the clutch set up. You will need to bleed the clutch system completely every 6-12 months. The fluid will get cooked. Heat shields, covering and even re-routing the line will only prolong the time between required fluid changes. At a minimum, the fluid should be changed once a year. The fluid will absorb moisture. Once it does it becomes more susceptible to being cooked by the under hood temperatures.
Suck the old fluid out of the master cylinder and fill it with fresh clean fluid from an unopened container. Have someone work the clutch pedal for you while you work the slave end. Expect to only get about 3 pumps before you need to refill the master. I've found that I need to put almost an entire pint of fluid through the system to have the fluid look satisfactory.
I lost my first slave and mc within the first year. Regular fluid change has eliminated the problem.
