So, for those of you who are unaware, I am having two huge-ass issues keeping me from driving around in my lovely SR-powered S13.
The first, being that the clutch pedal has no return on it. That is to say that if I push the clutch pedal down, it stays down, and thats the end of it.
Apparently, my slave cylinder went bad, as the piston does not retract, no matter what you do to the pedal; also, there was a LOT of brake fluid leaking out from around the piston on the slave cylinder if you pushed the pedal down.
So, I replaced the slave with the one off my SR half cut (the one I was using was from the KA), and after pushing the clutch pedal a few times, still no pressure, and the piston also popped out, with brake fluid leaking out from around it.
I had to refill the resevior with brake fluid both times since each time i pushed the pedal down, you could SEE the brake fluid vanishing from the resevior, like a ****ing fart in the wind.
I'm ****ed off and I apparently have two broken slave cylinders. ARGH!
Anyone have any ideas?
Part II: The SR Doesn't Crank
Okay, so all the wiring is good. I know this for a fact, okay? The electronics work, the lights work, everything works. The alternator wiring is good, but the starter wiring has me kinda scratching my head.
I would assume there is a live wire AND a ground. However, I see the live wire, its in the correct spot.. but i dont see a ground. I see a thin black cable, but It doesnt seem to be going anywhere except onto the motor itself. Is this the ground? If so, would the starter be grounded to the motor, then?
If I try to crank the motor, all I hear is a click, and nothing. No cranky sound, just a click and thats that.
Could it be that it is not grounded properly? I have yet to try using a tester on it, but I will sooner than later.
Any ideas are appreciated. If you live in the Bay Area and wanna come help me, let me know.
Thanks
