Default soft monster...

Bought the tick master cylinder,gm slave cylinder, and the monster kit stage 1. Now my question is, it was my understanding that with the tick master cylinder is supposed to "cure" or "fix" the high rpm shifting problem. But today I was shifting near redline and the pedal just stuck to the floor, I let off the gas and it came back up. Would you say I need to adjust it or bleed it? Ideas will greatly be appreciated.

When you think you bled fine, bleed again.

A pressure plate will stick down at high RPM when over centered.

^^^Slave pushes the diaphragm spring in the pressure plate over center and it cant return like it normally would. Once it pops over center, it looses its mechanical advantage.

You might have set the Tick master a little too far. Go over the instructions and set it again, or give Tick a call and they will be able to answer any questions about their master.
