can't bleed my clutch....
hi, i just replace my slave and master cylinder since they were suck on the floor and i couldn't shift. i replace my clutch with full kit 4 month ago so i assume it would be slave and master.
so i was doing 2 men bleeding by pump paddle, open valve, close valve, and release. and i've been doing that for 2 hrs, and paddle is still at floor. i see slave moving very very little, and when valve is open only small amount of fluid came out. something is wrong here but i dont know what it is. i i set the length of m/c's rod 11cm as service book tells. and slave cylinder is in compressed position, and i dont know if thats right. |
I've had 2 bad masters from 2 different sources lately so it's possible but not likely you got a bad master.
Try this: With the pedal up and the reservoir full. Open the bleeder then push the pedal to the floor. Close the bleeder, raise the pedal and repeat. Do this 5 or 6 times. be sure to keep a close eye on the fluid level it'll get low after 3 or 4 pumps. This might not get every drop of air out but should get most of it after 5 or 6 pumps most of the air will be out and you can go back to pump, hold, open, close then release method. |

If the clutch pedal is still not coming up all the way, you may need to take out the clevis pin to adjust the push rod on the master. |
