okay so i just finished swaping my eg hatch with a b16a and everything went great. so go to bleed the clutch pedal and it also went great. so i turn the car on and i push the clutch in and the car starts. i try to move it to first and it don't let me i push the clutch in all the way and nothing with wont move out of neutral. so when i turn the car off i hit the clutch and it moves to first. so im confused now did i install something wrong? did i break my clutch pedal? because i hit it all the way to the floor and it does not return. what should i look for i need help i cant move my car? thank you guys

 

help

 

maybe you got a bad pressure plate.

 

you think? cause the pedel did work when the car is off. just when i turn it on it wont engage

 

do you know how to bleed a clutch?

 

did u bleed the clutch yet?

 

is ur slave cylinder leaking, or u sure u have enough fluidin your resevour?
same thing happened to me, and it was a bad slave cylinder.

 

yeah i did that

 

to bleed a clutch, you pump the clutch pedal 10 good times, then hold down the pedal and have someone relead the nut so the fluid sprays out, and you continue doin this about 5 times or so. and make sure your clutch fluid dont run out.

 

okay yeah i was bleeding the clutch i had my dad help me he pumped on it and i would open the nosel and fluid would come out. the clutch pedal would got to the floor and it would not return. i had to keep on refilling the clutch reservoir

 

did you lift it off the floor and pump it again to get pressure back in the system, then try bleeding it again.

 

yeah i was doin it by hand and it just does have any pressure at all i even open the screw and pumped to let all the fluid out and start over and still nothing.

 

? what the, you know when it doesnt return, you pull it back up with you hands and start the process all over again till it stays up. you dont go filling up the resevor again if the clutch is on the floor. thats a no no.

and as for the nut, you open it then close it after the spray. quickly too. and just keep doin this, but check the resivor after 3 times of the cycle.

dude you dont open and pump cause that just puts a crap load of air in your lines. now you gotta do what i say like 10 to 15 times in a row maybe to get the air flushed out

lol

 

yeah but on the manual it says to do it like that. cause it like pumping the brakes. i was only following what the manual says to do. yeah but also when im pumping the pedal does not return at all so

 

its all the clutch bleeding though. have someone who knows how to do the bleeding do your clutch and then it'll be fine.

 

i think you don't understand what im writing about you see when i bleed it fluid does come out. so i have to be bleeding it right or else their wouldn't be no fluid coming out at all. its the pedal that does not want to return it stays engaged

 

my friend are telling me that it might be the clutch reservoir. so i going to replace that i hope that will fix my problem.

 

Cause u probly have to much air in there. When bleeding it, pull it up by hand if if doesnt return.

 

lol
after someone pumps on it a few times, and you let the fluid out, the pedal is not going to return back to the normal position without you helping it. here what you do:
pump it about 10 times
hold it while someone does this....
...unbolt the thing to let the fluid come out, and bolt it back up rapidly
using ur hand, get the pedal to normal position and start pumping again.... and repeat the other processes.

 

okay do you guys thing my clutch master cylinder might need to be replaced. even though fluid does move threw it

 

BLEED YOUR CLUTCH THE PROPER WAY!


obviously you weren't listening.

Slave cylinder, not Master cylinder. Master cylinder is brakes.

 

yeah the slave slyinder is mounted on the transmission and the clutch master cylinder is were you put the fluid. also you guys say to bleed the right way. i was pumping the pedal but i have nothing. so how am i suppose to work with nothing that is thier.
