Just got done installing my new Unorthodox racing clutch and flywheel.... Car starts and everything, but my clutch pedal when I push it in it just FALLS (literally) to the floor/firewall. I'm bleeding the brakelines cause my brakes aren't all the way up to par as far as the pedal pushing in. I just don't know whats wrong with the clutch. Bleed the master cylinder? If anyone knows please take the time to go somewhat in depth on how to fix it. I appreciate all the help....

 

bleed the clutch like you are doing the brakes.....

 

exactly what he said. there is a bleeder screw on the slave cylinder. bleed it like you would the brakes.

your master clutch cylinder should never need bleeding unless you let your reservoir run dry while bleeding....then you could get some air in there and that could be tough to get out.....

you always "bench bleed" master cylinders when they are new, but yours will be ok

look on the slave cylinder, there is an 8mm bolt with a nipple on the end.....thats the bleeder valve, everything else is the same as the brakes...

 

Thanks guys, but I've already been bleeding the slave cylinder...... I've begun to get my brakes back but my clutch still just sits on the floor and everytime I do the brake I do the clutch. Pull it out pump it hold it to the floor release the valve tighten the valve then repeat the process. Still nothing with the clutch. The brakes are getting a little bit better but not the clutch.
