Clutch Bleed.

[jared87]

Thanks everyone for their help, my clutch is now all good. I let it self bleed on friday by opening the bleed screw and just letting it run while topping up the reservior. I then took it for a drive and it was no difference, I then drove to the pub, had quite a few then when I went to head home the pedal was sweet and all is good.

Smart move!

Glad the clutch is ok.

maybe he meant a quiet few??

It probably felt good because you were flogged!!

LOL I thought that may have been the case too but when I drove it the next morning the pedal was still good.

that's why Mal Wood makes the clutch remote bleed line.

I always use a clear tubing on my other cars that's slips onto the nipple and run it to a 600 ml bottle. stops any mess and u can the condition of fluid. Aswell with bleeding brakes.

prob nothing new but thought id mention it

also,

im confused, was gonna replace clutch fluid but dunno now. so I gotta crack the nip right, get missus to do the fluid, pump till new fluid is thru, tighten nip. then pump like mad (if needed..??)

eh??

sweet,will try that approach. at risk of sounding lazy\stupid, where is the cylinder located?? never even seen it before (havn't searched yet) guessing u gotta get under and sumwhere near the box..?

the master cylinder is in the engine bay, at the back on the drivers side. small plastic tub next to the brake resovior.
