Hey Guys and Gals,
I got a new clutch master and slave and can't get any pedal pressure, we have tried 3 different bleeding techniques.

Any tricks or hints would be sweet.

Why won't the system pressurize itself again.

No car make Neal something something

Do you have clutch fluid in the cylinder?  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

'>  Heh, sorry... I am not much help. Is the fluid staying in the cylinders/lines? The level is not dropping? I guess you've probably pulled the pedal back up and tried pumping it...

Never mind...fixed it after 8 bottles of brake fluid, wow bleeding this system is a real bitch.

Also got my Intake on today...sounds goods when you pin it.

where you expecting the clutch pedal to rise back like a brake pedal?

if so thats probably why it took you 8 bottles that is very excessive. i replaced my dampner the slave and master and didnt even go through one bottle including bleeding it.

the clutch has its own master so its not like most cars that work off the brake master

also there is no vacuum applied to it so you must manually bring the pedal back to the top and do it over and ovcer again.

hope this helps for next time <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='
