I installed a new clutch master cylinder and the pedal is to the floor and it acts like there is no pressure it just stays down there. you could grab the pedal and shake it back and forth like nothing. This afternoon im going to bleed it with that bleeder tool to see if thats my problem, any suggestions??

 

Did you bleed it after you installed the new one?

 

No because it feel like there is no pressure to bleed

Let me get this straight, you installed a new ctutch cylinder and didn't bleed it? Now you're asking why there isn't any pressure on the pedal? Are you familiar with how a hydraulic system works?
A hydrolic clutch system is similar to your brake system. Water and fluids such as brake and clutch fluid aren't compressible. If there is air (which is compressible) in the system you will not build pressure as you apply the pedal. Therefore you must bleed the system anytime air is introduced into the system (such as when disconnecting a hose or replacing a cylinder).

Have someonoe who is more mechanically inclined give you hand. It is much more easier to bleed a system with 2 people anyways. 1 to pump the pedal, the other to keep the reservoir full.

 

Thats what i thought, so this after noon im going to buy the tool that bleeds hydralic systems. Thanks
ill keep posted

 

Found out it had a lot off bubbles and i couldnt of done it with out the one man bleeder kit.
