Bleeding is definitely the answer.

However I did have a 944 where the clutch hydraulic lines were all steel except for a 5 inch section of braided stainless over rubber tubing to go around a corner. I replaced both cylinders and everything would work perfect for the first few shifts after I bled the lines. Then I'd lose the clutch pedal and have to refill and rebleed the lines to get it working again.

It turned out that the rubber had degraded so much that it was oozing fluid when I pressed the clutch then sucking in air when I released it. It took me most of a day to find it, but then it was a $2 fix. Just something to check if bleeding the system doesn't seem to be working very well.
