It may require much more bleeding. Check if there could possibly be a leak in the lines.

If that doesn't fix your problem, replace the pressure plate.

if you are manually bleeding the clutch system it will normally take over 50 pumps , it can take forever, soundlike you prolly haven't bled it fully, or you have pressure plate problems

Heres some ideas:

1) Check all your soft hoses under pressure, look for buldges
2) Check your hardlines for leaks
3) When you replaced your slave and master you should of used new crush washers when you did that.
4) When I bled my system the bleader scews threads were letting air back in so i had to put some liqued sealer stuff on there to stop that.

Edit: You did BENCH BLEED the master first right? otherwise youll be bleading it forever on the car and then some.

what is bench bleeding....Ok so how can i check my pressure plate????

5ltreater

Hmm

So if the hard lines are not tight enough it could cause pressure problems? What about the soft lines...They are old but i dont think its the problem...I went from no pressure at all to just a little bit when i replaced those so maybe i just need to bleed. I bled it for like an hour of just constant pumpingl...

Bench bleeding the master cylinder. Before you fully mounted the master cylinder, you should've followed the included instructions to push the stem into the cylinder, then while pulling it back out, fill it up with the brake fluid. That way, when you hooked everything up, it would have very little, if no air in the cylinder. If you didn't do this, it will take you ages to bleed the system.


To check the pressure plate, pull the transmission off and inspect it thoroughly.


Check any and all lines for leaks. If there is one, you'll see the fluid leaking. Just use common sense.

yes, it can have some play. Don't pay much attention to that detail.
