im frustated. im done with my new build and now my clutch is stuck!!! does not come back up on its own.

i have the jwt clutch and pressure plate.

i drained all the old fluid and put new fluid in. i press the clutch all the way down and hold, open nipple then close... and release clutch... i dont see any air pockets anymore but the damn clutch pedal still not responding... could it be that my slave cylinder is blown?

when i installed my new clutch i noticed the little ball thats on the inside of the tranny behind the fork was broken. i put a different cover one that had the ball on it. fork feels fine. but now im wondering if its my slave cylinder???

 

i press the clutch all the way down and i can feel pressure but when i release it the slave cylinder still fully out and does not retract

 

i think i know what my problem is... when i put the fork back in place i did not snap the little ball into the back of the fork.

could this be it?

EDIT:

ok before i pulled the tranny you can see inside right behind the fork and you can see the little ball is in place... no need to pull the tranny.

any other suggestions? pressure plate too tight??? bolts too tight?

 

update: just found out there are different forks. and i think im using the wrong one. mine is hollow and the bolt on the tranny is not tall enought so i have to replace the fork for a thicker fork so it can match up with the bolt (ball)

 

huh lol never heard of this before. try reverse bleeding the slave first. feed fluid into the slave from underneath. you will be suprise how well it will work

 

FIXED. tranny/clutch are fine. i was using the wrong fork. had to take tranny down and replace fork. done!! next. burp the coolant system.

 

which fork did you use??

 

the thicker one. the one that came with the cd009.
