my clutch squeaks but i dont think its a big deal. if its all the way to the floor, that doesn't neccessarily mean there's no fluid, it means that the clutch/lines/mc/slave are not holding their pressure correctly.

but i would agree, that you should change your MC and slave unit, should be about 100 bucks, and then bleed your system.

ok im gonna try to do it.

turboteg90

well..found the problem,what is it?

slave cylinder

turboteg90

nothing like getting up real early to work on your car,lol
so far i got the bolts of,do i need to get the lines of too?i never change the cylinder before.

turboteg90

one more queston?im online looking at the prices,some cylinders are as cheap as 14 bucks,some are 30+,which one would work the best?or should i go to Honda and get one from them.

Don't need to buy an expensive Honda part, those are usually available at your local parts store off the shelf, it's a polular one and fits many Honda's. You get everything including the rubber boot. Remove the lines ans take it with you so you get the correct one.

10mm I believe, those fittings tend to be hard to remove with an open end wrench. Borrow a set of flare nut wrenches if you can, they're specifically designed for this type of work.

Hanmin

go buy one, 5-10 bucks depending on where you get it from, I wouldn't go for a cheapo brand though, it'll just flex and stretch and strip it anyways. Try takeing the other end off, and if you can, and slip the O part of the wrench all the way down, It will not strip=].

si_motor_spt

put the slave back on, remove the hard line first, then remove the slave cylinder.... should be a breeeeze

finally got it,it took forever,now im just waiting for the cylinder...it great when your mom hooks you up on parts

almost

i tried bleeding the clutch like 7 times,but the clucth still desangages real fast..idk whats wrong

you gotta bleed, bleed, bleed till your pedal gets its pressure back. just like doing brakes. also bleeding the clutch isn't going to change your engagement point.

there are some nuts and bolts (sorry for my description i don't have any pics) on the actually clutch pedal. that's where you adjust it. basically the back of the master cylinder comes thru the fire wall and bolts into your clutch pedal... the shorter the arm for the master is the shorter the engagement point, and obviously the further out the arm is the longer the engagement point. and then you just adjust every thing so the clutch pedal isn't loose and that's about it. its super easy

lmk if this doesn't make sense maybe ill try to get some pictures for ya

haha i like how under your username you have "even your spaces are misspelled!"

i was just wondering wtf is a cluth?

dividedas1

search about the squeaky clutch too. our cars' are notorious for squeaky master cylinders. i have been squeakin' for the past 4-5 months now it sucks but if you can live with it, i wouldn't worry too much.

^See the quote ^


And the reason I have that under my username is because I made one of the moderators laugh with that line I said "even your spaces are misspelled!" He eventually took my quote and stuck it under my username forever

You'd have to see the post to understand where this is coming from. I tried looking but I can't find the post where the IDIOT who couldn't speak the english language for **** (iz diz bee mah vtak?) and was asking for help because he didn't feel like installing a 4th spark plug. So instead, he filled up the entire spark plug hole with quicksteel/mighty outty/jb weld whatever the hell it was and ran the car on 3 cylinders. Does anyone remember that post?

turboteg90

heres a video..in the video you can see that almost half of the pedal is real loose and the clutch wont engage till i have pressed half the pedal.i was looking at adjusting it but theres two bolts,one behind the pedal and one above the pedal.i was thinkin of putting something in between the bolt in front of the pedal so it will saty half way.
