Default starting to diagnose problem need help making checklist of **** to try

ok well i had a problem with my clutch not engaging and i covered that in another thread but anyways i pulled it apart checked pressure plat, shift fork, throw out bearing, clutch disk and peddle adjustment. car is drivable now but clutch engages really low to the ground when before i had this problem it engaged really high so that i could slip it off the line when racing. i am running a cable tranny with the hasport cable to hydro conversion kit (slave is fine too), but anyways i still need to try bleeding it which i dont think would cause this much havoc and just wanted to know if anyone else had any suggestions on what to check while diagnosing it? thanks

Bleeding out the clutch line will fix your problem.

Not true. He just did a clutch job and didn't bleed the brakes. That's the problem.

I dunno dude, clutch lines can be a BITCH to get air out of. Really annoying. And if this is on a 92-95 then check your clutch master, on the inside of the car. They have a tendency to leak.

I agree, more than likely if you bleed it (be obsessive compulsive about it) it should be fine. Just take your time and keep bleeding until there is absolutely no air, no bubbles, no foam, no anything but straight fluid.
