hey guys I need opinion here. I replaced both master and slave clutch cylinder but still no pressure on the pedal. I tried pumping couple times but no luck. There is a fluid coming out from the bleeder but not much though. The piston inside the slave cylinder does not seem to push back.

What else should I look for? Could it be a defective slave cylinder? The pic above is the old slave cylinder.

Need Help PLs..

 

Any help? cumon it's my bday tommorw I need my lude running.

 

did u bleed it?

 

bleed it fool. It takes while.

 

damn i just read it again and realized u havent bled ur clutch system. but since its ur bday now, ill walk you through it. (this is from memory, only done it twice.)

you need 2 other people helping you. (3 people total)
1person is standing at the master cylinder with brake fluid in hand
1person (YOU) at the slave cylinder with the bleeder valve
1person in the car to pump the clutch pedal

1)fill the master cylinder to the fill line near the top and make sure the person with the brake fluid KEEPS THE BRAKE FLUID AT THAT LEVEL THROUGHOUT THIS WHOLE PROCESS. (the MC should NEVER be empty)
2)hold the clutch pedal down to the ground
3)you open the bleeder valve (into a container obviously)
4)person in the car pumps the clutch pedal up and down (may have to lift it with his hand)
5) keep pumping until a steady flow of brake fluid comes out of the bleeder valve
6) person in the car holds the clutch pedal to the ground
7) YOU close the valve
8)person in car slowly picks up the clutch pedal to the top.
9)i usually pump the clutch like 700 more times after step 8, just to feel it. dunno if that actually helps finish bleeding.

i think thats it, ive only done it twice and succeeded one time. The 2nd time the clutch was the problem (blown pressure plate) so im not sure if that was done right...

 

I did bleed the bleeder valve but don't seem to have much fluid coming out. But you (dagle)say push and pull the pedal several times and keep the reservior full of fluid, are you talking about two bottles of brake fluid at least until I get pressure? I already used one bottle and no luck.

Also, when bleeding, it necessay to take the bleeder screw all the out or just loose it a little bit. I already tried these two method. But like I said, im not sure if I did it many times as you did on yours.

I'm going to try two bottles of fluid tommorw and we'll see. By the way, if this crap still no pressure, what's clutch dumper has to do w/ this problem?

Thanks dagle.
