ok im almost done with my b18b1 swap on my 4dr eg but i came to a problem.ill try to make story short.

I got the motor from a junk yard,the guy had told me that the clutch needed to be replace ok. So i start putting the swap in my car right i just got done installing the axles and finishing putting break fluid power steering fluid and clutch fluid and tranny fluid.so im ready to go start the car right. I go in the car,push in the clutch there is absolutely no resistance what so ever on the clutch. It wont come up, i can even push it in and out with my had with no problem.my question is. If there no clutch or pressure plate inside the tranny will it do this? Because i cant think of any other reason why will it do this,and im thinking that the guy from the junk yard said that the clutch needed to be replace he probably toke it out. I know i should of open the tranny and replace the clutch but i was so exited and anxious that i put on the motor with out looking.

someone plz help. Before i take out the tranny and is not that and is something else.

I doubt they pulled the clutch, it's probably just worn. Did you fully bleed the slave cylinder? Maybe the slave cyl is bad.

hey tanks alot for the advice i went out there and bleed the slave cylinder again and now the clutch pedal had resistance.started up and and everything was ok.

Before installing any swaps, it is wise to replace the clutch, motor oil, spark plugs, water pump and timing belt. It's easier to do some of these items when you have easy access to do so.

Glad to see it was a simple fix. Sometimes the slave cyl can be a pain to fully bleed.

check in this order:

1. is there fluid in the master cylinder?
2. is there air in the clutch line?
3. is the clutch fork wobbly/loose?
4. is the slave cylinder secured tightly?

those are my checks. use it as you please.
