I have a 1994 f350 turbo standard. Is there a way to adjust the clutch?
I see no leaks but the peddle goes to the floor before the clutch
releases, especially when hot.

Check your fluid reservior If that's OK, check your master cylinder and
slave cylinder.  Barring those you may need a new throwout bearing.

He's saying your clutch is operated hydraulically, not by a cable like older
vehicles.

I think he already knew that since he said there were no leaks, he might be
looking for a way to adjust the pedal mechanically, and I do not know of a
way to do that.

You might want to bleed the clutch actuator.
My clutch had been acting up and not totally disengaging, really
driving me nuts.
I bled it and got a bit of air out of the system and now things are
better.
It was always worse when hot, I guess it was the air expanding.

If it is like my 93, it is a two person job just like bleeding brakes.
After the bleed screw is opened, the pedal will stick to the floor, you
will need to bring it back up with your foot and then pump it a few
times, repeat.
