clutch help
im sorry i know this is in the wrong forum but my DD is down and the prelude forum moves so slow.
my clutch lost all pressure the friday before last when i was leaving my house to go to work. i went to work that day in my other car and thought about it all day. i got home inspected my clutch system and noticed my master cylinder was leaking into the cabin. replaced it (didn't bench bleed so i got another one since that one tore up) didn't fix it. replaced the slave since it was consuming break fluid into the boot while i was trying to bleed. all this time after fixing it i found that everytime i would push the clutch down to bleed it, it would slam to the floor and have to be pulled up manually. i am completely stumped. i started looking at my chiltons which is terrible a very vague book as it is made for accords and preludes they don't make a haynes so that is all i got. but i found out it has a clutch damper what does this thing do could it be keeping me from being able to bleed it? i had read some clutch dampers have a bleed screw on them but i can not find one on it, is there a way to bleed this then move on to the slave.....i have read that this part is discontinued from honda also.
