Jmabarone 04-08-2008, 11:45 PM check to see if you have fluid. my car leaks fluid, so you have to refill the reservoir often. make sure you bleed it well. Jake ArnZ 04-08-2008, 11:51 PM no pressure means air in the lines or bad master/slave cyclinder. fill up your clutch resivour with fluid, bleed the lines then try and find any leaks. Jmabarone 04-09-2008, 12:13 AM yeah, make sure you fix any leaks, because the reservoir for the clutch is also the reservoir for the brakes. Jake AlaskaBimmer 04-09-2008, 04:38 AM At least there is a divider in the reservoir so if you lose your clutch you don't lose your brakes as well....Do you have a puddle on the floor? Slaves are cheap to replace about $30.00 and 10 mins to swap, 2 13 mm nuts and a couple of small box wrenches on the line and it's out, mine went and made a mess all over the fly wheel since it was leaking inside the bell housing. |
