me_eat_rice

I just did the drill mod, and i bench bled the master. I then plugged in the the fitting into the slave (i heard a click, but there is still some play). I went to bleed the system and as I was bleeding it seemed that all the brake fluid was leaking out of the bottom of the bellhousing. As of now, I believe either the connection is messed up with the slave, or just the slave needs to be replaced.

Can anyone help me out?

There will be some play once the quick disconnect is conected its just the way they are. As long as it clicked your fine. As for the leaking fluid it could be a leaking slave.

well i continued to bleed the system as it was leaking everywhere and the pedal was not getting and pressure. Another thing is that i bled the system a couple of weeks ago and there was no leaks, so i am still very confused

Slave is leaking from inside the tranny. Sucks b/c mine is doing the same. Drop the tranny and replace.

When you are bleeding the slave the bled fluid drains out the bottom of the bellhousing. Sounds normal to me. Keep bleeding it until pedal pressure comes back.

i bled it about 30 times and there is no difference in pedal pressure...and all the fluid in the reservoir is gone (which means all of it is on the ground from leaking!)

Sounds like you are doing it wrong. All the fluid will leave the reservoir. You have to refill it. If you keep cracking the bleeder after the reservoir is empty, you are just introducing more air into the system and you will never get any pedal pressure.

Fill the reservoir to the line.
Put the cap back on
Have someone else pump the clutch 3-5 times and hold it down on the last pump.
You open the bleeder. It only takes 1/4-1/2 a turn to crack it open.
Leave the bleeder open for a couple seconds.
Tighten the bleeder fitting.
Have your friend release the clutch and start the pumping again.
Repeat the bleed procedure.
Check the reservoir and top it off

FWIW, when I replaced my master and slave, I spent a solid hour bleeding the air out. My reservior would empty after 3 bleeding cycles, so every 3 cracks of the bleeder, I had to crawl out from under the car and refill the reservoir.

Fluid will end up on the ground, it has to go somewhere. When you bleed the system you are simply venting the pressure in the system. That takes the air out, but fluid also comes with it.

also make sure you do not strip out the bleeder valve on the slave.... its easy to do by over tightening every time you bleed/purge the system
