i hope this isn't too confusing but.
my clutch seems to be bad but it doesn't always slip. instead of catching down by the floor, i have to release the clutch pedal more than half way out. i heard that i need a new clutch but also heard about clutch bleeding?
if you think it can be fixed by clutch bleeding how do i do this on a 93 ls hatch?


also, i have an apexi blow off valve almost new still in box for sale. 175$ any takers?

If it is at least slipping sometimes then its probably on its way to going out. One way to tell if your clutch needs bled is how much pressure or force the pedal has. If it seems to be a little limp lol, and you can move it with your hand fairly easy it probably needs bled. To bleed find the acuator on the tranny which pretty much the only thing you can see on it, and there a bolt with a nipple (its a 8mm on my d16) pump the pedal and open the nut a little, let some fluid/air out, close it and repeat till you have a firm pedal. but since you mention its a ls, if it has the ls tranny and its cable, then just adjust the cable. I think you have a clutch going bad though. good luck

The fact that it slips sometimes and the pedal getting higher sounds like the clutch is going out. Time to replace it.

sounds like it needs to be bled too though. thanks a bunch
