Hey Guys, Well…it’s been over a year and I’m stuck in a RUT with my 240 swap. My genius friend rushed the tear down and I have scatted nut & bolt hardware and odds and ends up the arsssss. My question to everyone is WHERE ARE THE SHOPS AT? heh, actually I’m desperate and figure I wanna let the pros finish for me. I really don’t wanna let too many people see the progress because really, it embarasses the shit outta me. I just wanna have it towed to a shop (preferably in Edmonton) and have them finish it off. Does anyone have suggestions as to who to see (where to go) that does swaps and a Nissan experienced would be preferable. BTW I don’t have SR20…it’s a CA swap. I miss that car! (Thanks for hearing the vent… but if you have a reply or any comments PLEASE jot em down!) ---

i’m sure there on people on this board from Edmonton that would help you finish the swap yourself, especially if you offered them free beer. :drinkers: ---

> [@silvers13](#): > > you can always use my usdm ca s13 for reference too Beers for all who wanna help. Like I said too though, so far my buddy’s garage area is a disaster. Extra beer for the silvers13, the reference would help greatly. First question on the Help thing, I’m bleeding my clutch as per procedure given in multiple threads and the CA18 Manual, but I am gaining zero pressure against the clutch…am I doing this properly?..will the clutch system build pressure somehow when the motor is fired up? ---

It can take a real long while to bleed the system if the majority of the fluid has been lost. Just keep pumping away. ---

Should I pump through with the drain open for a while? or do the “Open…pump…close…pump” thing for a few hours? ---

Close, pump, pump, pump, hold down (and keep it down), open, close, lift pedal, pump, pump, pump, hold down, open, close, lift pedal… do that for a while, you’ll likely have to lift the pedal and pump by hand for a bit. Never lift the pedal while you have the slave cylinder valve open, that will just suck in more air. ---
