Default Loss Of Clutch Pressure After Motor Swap

So I did a motor swap in my car and my clutch worked fine before the swap but now after the swap my pedal has no pressure at all. It will be all the way out and then you tap the pedal and it goes all the way to the floor without any effort and stays in. Same thing on the way out. Please Help

Did you swap transmissions during your swap? Like from your old motor to your new one.

If so my bet would be slave master cylinder. It really easy for it to over extend or even get the fork off track. When I did my swap mine wasn't seated all the way and I got air in my system. You could also try bleeding the system if all else fails just to check for air. goodluck

sounds like someone stepped on your clutch before you installed your new motor and it killed your slave cylinder

it takes two people to properly bleed a clutch line. one to operate the the valve and to add more fluid.

1. Fill It
2. Close the valve
3. Have some pump the pedal to the floor and all the way out.
3 1/2. Hold the pedal to the floor
4. Open the valve to release the air
5. Add more fluid if needed.
Repeat the process 4 times till you start to feel pressure. you should repeat the process 10 plus times to get proper feel.
