Default Clutch hydraulic issue help!


Ok, this issue im having im really not sure what it is caused by, nor why it would be like this.

1. Act clutch setup, stiff pedal(expected) Feels "odd" sometimes, as in the engagement seems to change, not a consistant engagement.

2. Competition clutch stage 2. Initial install, great pedal feel, actually softer then stock, PERFECT engagement. 2-4 days later. Stiff pedal again, just as stiff as with the ACT.

3. Ive swapped an oem, used slave cylinder in, same thing, after bleeding.

4. Fluid used- ATE Superblue, IL4 Stainless clutch hose.

Now, Could this be caused my the master cylinder? I dont know where else to look, the transmission is NEW, the clutch fork is NEW, an the throwout also BRAND NEW, all oem parts, straight from acura.

I dont wanna drop 80 on a new master cylinder if thats not gonna solve it. The pedal freeplay is around 1/4"-1/2"

A few things you could do:

1. bleed bleed and bleed the lines some more.
2. adjust the MC rod.
3. look for leaks of any kind, if you see a leak replace that piece.

Well, absolutely no leaks, its been a problem for a little while, no fluid level changes. Ive bled and bled/flushed 3 times now. All the same. I bought a new MC today. The rod felt great with initial install of the comp clutch, not it feels shitty like it did with the act, the engagement feels diff. The comp clutch is known for its softer then stock pedal feel. When it felt like that it was great, now i just hate driving on it with the engagement how it is.

Ill post an update tonight when i put the new OEM cmc in.
