so I installed a new clutch and when I put everything back and hit the clutch it stayed stuck to the ground after pushing it 1/4 of the way it just snapped down. so I came on here and searched and the most common thing was air in the lines bled the lines still having the same problem so I purchased a new slave cylinder installed it bled the lines again still having the same problem not sure what to do any help would be appreciated

 

You sure it's bleeding correctly? Once it has pressure building up it will push the pedal back up, the snapping down is normal at this point.

It's possible the master cyl is bad but it sounds like air in the system still to me.

 

Is there a different way of bleeding the lines? I took a clear tube put it on the clutch release valve nipple, had a friend pump the clutch 5 times, opened the release valve, counted one second, closed it and repeated this step maybe 10 times and still nothing. There doesn't seem to be air in the lines from what I can tell, I don't see air bubbles in the tube when I open the valve.

your in south florida want to come help LMAO

 

power bleeder?

 

no just bleeding it manually

 

That's what I meant. Maybe try a power bleeder to make sure you have it fully bled.

 

50/50 that if you break pressure in the line the master will go bad to

 

Zspeedperformance ... Heavy duty master and Slave cylinders ordered mine 2 days ago along with my clutch and flywheel combo

 

I just went through this with mine after replacing a bad Clutch Master. Put the slave cylinder together. Air is probably in there. I pushed the slave together and then had a friend pump the clutch while i opened and closed the bleeder valve. Every couple of pumps i pushed the slave back together just to make sure it had no remaining air in it.

 

Bingo, you have to collapse the slave all the way to get the air out of it. I do it everytime i open the bleed port. PITA, getting both arms in there, one to work the wrench and one to compress the slave.

The bleed port design is crappy, the valve should be facing up. This is the reason you can not get the air out.

 

I just pushed it once then worried about the bleeder. then went back and compressed it again. only had to compress it 3 or 4 times. Wasn't difficult. And i used a deep wrench kinda L shaped to open close the valve. wasn't a pain, just tedious.
