Default No pedal presure, what gives

i got in my car sat morning and theres no pedal pressure, but it goes up and down smoothly doesnt stick anywhere . I put some fluid in the resivoir cup, pumped it some more & nothing. Theres no fluid on the ground and theres no fluid on my carpet. ive got the mcleod adj master cylinder if that matters so any ideas on what the problem could be?

This forum isn't very heavily travelled, and you probably need to wait more then 10 hours before complaining that nobody has helped you out.

This is not by any means an original question, and using the SEARCH button might help you out more then getting pissed that nobody has answered your question.


I would maybe attempt to bleed the system and see if that helps. Also any other information on how the car drives, and any other info on the drivetrain (clutch type, slave type, etc) may assist other people who try to help you out.

Patience is a virtue, and whining is a nuisance. Try bleeding it as xphantom suggested- you might have air in the line somewhere. Check the bottom of the bellhousing, too- you might have a small leak.

Mine did the same thing this past weekend ! DId you check the adjuster on it ? If you have it adjusted way up sometimes they will have failure after time because the rod will bend a little because it is adjusted to far out ! Plus with it being out to far the nut can come loose a little . I have had a McLeod in my car for about 4 years and all I have to say is I am on my 4th rebuild with it I ordered a Cartek on yesterday I am just tired of the McLeod I just have had no luck with mine .....
