Need help
Need help I just did a clutch swap but i cant seem to get any presure in my pedal it feels real spongy.I tried bleeding it several times but it still feels the same,any help???
I agree. I give props to those guys who can bleed the clutch by the book, I can't even hardly get a damn socket on the bleed screw. a local parts store has the mity vac you can buy or rent, if you try searching on here you should find a writeup

From what I've read, it takes at least a quart of fluid to flush out all of the air, using the gravity method!
It is a very messy job....I rigged up a small diameter hose to fit inside the bleader valve, connected to a smaller diameter brake line tube that extends down to a container. Over the clear hose I put the long, 12mm, socket and then whatched the bubbles coming out of the slave through the clear hose. When the bubbles slowed down, I went a pushed the clutch pedal in to move the air still left in the system. Keep repeating....Top off the master cylinder every so often.

I tried using the mighty vac and it still does not work. Could my slave cylinder line be bad? I think its leaking cause when i hook up the vac at 12 PSI it starts to loose presure.What do you think?
