Clutch Bleeding Issues After New Csc

[sam71093]

Hi all,

I just installed a new clutch kit and a remote bleed line from NPC. The remote bleed line came with a bleed nipple that works like check valve and seals on a taper. As I believe you should just crack it then pump the pedal and it should bleed and not let any air back into the system.

My issue is, when I just crack it nothing happens, so I undo it a little more then it fluid bleeds through the treads so

I tried thread tape but nothing seems to work. It seems that I may have the wrong one as it only screws in like 3 threads (doesn't even make it to the black thread sealant it has on there as seen in photo) then it seals up on the taper.

Any info would be great if all else fails can I just buy a normal bleed nipple and use a vacuum bleeder.

Thanks In Advance

Man that seriously looks like a speed bleeder for the brake calipers.

Where is Phil, when you need him.

With the speed bleeders for the brakes, you loosen the bleeder and he spring+ball bearing only allow the brake fluid to flow in one direction.

That should do the same thing, but it is possible that it is blocked with something and so it is not working.

Not meant to be bleeding through the threads.

Sorry that is not much help, but maybe someone else that has done these, could possibly tune in.
