This appears to be a random event, or at least I have not determined a
pattern. I do have a very minor leak in the hydraulic hose. It is so
minor, I only add about one, maybe two ounces of fluid about every 1000
miles. The clutch, pressure plate, and throw out bearing were all
replaced about 8000 miles ago, and appear to work properly (no slipping,
etc).
Old hose, swelling and collapsing internally, obstructing the fluid flow.
Treat it to a new clutch slave cylinder hose and you'll both be happy
again.
