Began with this:So my clutch master Cylinder went right as people were leaving for the tuning event. I bought a replacement and put it on today. However, I cannot seem to get it bled. No matter what I do, it does not stay up where it should. I need to have this done tomorrow cause my roommate need his car back. Could someone give me advice on what I am doing wrong, or maybe stop over tomorrow night to help me out? Would consider help tonight, but I am going to be at dinner for an hour or so.
All help is appretiated. Thanks.
then went to this:
F#@$!!!
Just swapped the new slave on and bled everything. started the car and it would not shift into gear.
Here is what is going on:
rommate was driving the car when it became very hard to shift into or out of any gear. limped it home.
looked it over. Had two acura service guys look at the car. concluded the Clutch Master Cyl went (leaking pretty good). Parked the car and waited for the master to get in at advanced.
Got the master, put it on, but couldn’t get the clutch to come back all the way. Forgot to adjust it. Since I had to take it off, I bought the slave cyl and tonight adjusted the master to the same as the previous one, and then put the slave cyl on.
shift through gears with the car off and it shifts fine. Clutch pedal had the same pressure, but engages back a little further than it used to (towards the fire wall)
Start the car and it won’t shift into any gear. when you try to shift into a gear, the RPM’s go down like it’s pressing against the flywheel.
Turned the car off. In neutral, ebrake off, you can’t push the car forward.
Put the car into gear and started the car and it lurched forward. I did this once and was able to keep it going and it drove fine, no grinding or anything, just couldn’t shift it.
So it seems like it is still engaged all the time.
And now I am stuck as for what to do. does anyone know what could be up with this? Does the clutch need to be adjusted more? I really need to get this fixed tomorrow cause I need to go out of town this weekend.
