Default need help bleeding hydro clutch on 93 del sol si

need help guys bleeding the clutch on a 93 sol si, pumped the clutch a few times and undid the bleeder screw and now the pedel stays at the floor, is there any thing special i have to do with bleeding and adjusting the clutch on a hydro tranny?

You need a one man brake bleeder kit to do this properly. Harbor Freight sells a cheap one that works good. Get yourself a pdf manual and you should have no problem.

the reason it went to the floor is because when you loosened the bleeder it let the fluid and pressure out (and any air that was in it), to regain pressure, add fluid if needed and pump clutch again. It helps to have so friend so one can pump and hold and the other can use the bleeder

Thats how mine was when i did it but i dont know if i did it like 40 times, if you know your slave cylinder is good then its just a matter of pumping it more assuming you have no leaks and stuff.

I had the same issue.. turns out my master cylinder went bad :S Follow your clutch pedal up underneath your dash and see how things look there. Also like someone else stated your slavecylinder could be bad but lets not jump to conclusions.. try a using a mity vac.. if still no dice returnd the mityvac and start trouble shooting
