One thing you could check to eliminate before you tear into the whole thing, is the short run of rubber on the hose leading into the slave. If it moves or bulges with clutch operation, it might not be transmitting the fluid signal to the slave. That wouldn't explain your temp differential situation though.
One thing I have found is that the slave mechanism can bind up from accumulated corrosion, and also the input shaft / clutch plate being dry. That could be temperature influenced if heat expansion would make the surfaces more freely moving.
Even when I get a new slave, I will butter it up with the red girling grease on the surfaces that would benefit and then assemble it. The last slave failure I had was corrosion on the sleeve that prevented the return of the pressure plate fingers. Actually that was helpful as I didn't have to struggle to get the spacer ring into the PP.
Let me know if you want to crew with us in August 13-19 in Utah.
