Default Inconsistant clutch pedal feel

My catch point has started to differ from the usual 40% from full depress to full release to 90% and then back again. Is a simple flush all thats needed? Any DIYs for this anywhere?

Flush is pretty simple although it helps if you have skinny arms.

With power bleeder:
1. Hook up power bleeder to reservoir in front trunk and fill with pentosin.
2. Suck the fluid out of the rear tank and refill with fresh pentosin.
3. slide under the car, remove engine tray, and look up by the drivers side of teh transmission for a bleed valve.
4. Get a nice long clear hose and suitable container and open the bleed valve.

Without:

Same story, just have a buddy pump the clutch pedal and do it the hard way.
