Remove the clutch line dampener (check the fsm in the stickies). I assume it doesn’t engage/disengage gears either right. I’m guessing this is your problem. To do this, just follow your clutch line from the clutch master to a little box valve looking thing. From this box there should be a thick line that leads to a bleeder and one that leads eventually to your slave cylinder on the transmission. Remove the box and the line that leads to a bleeder and directly connect the clutch line to the flexible line that goes to the slave. Make sure you don’t kink the line when you bend it. When you’re done the reconnecting it just bleed it via the clutch slave bleeder. ![http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o317/Holiday_Styles/Dampenerremoval.jpg](http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o317/Holiday_Styles/Dampenerremoval.jpg) PS Use the _stickies_ at the top of this page (slave/master removal/install at the top) and the _search button_. This has been covered, but I’ll take it easy because you’re new. Hopefully this works… 😃 ---

Could just be a bad master or slave cylinder…I would go and replace your master…its happend to me on my old s13 before too. ---

the master will be a little diffrent if memory serves correctly. But I did both with a buddy one sunday afternoon. 80 bucks in parts, and an hour or so of my life. ---

get a friend to lie down under the car. you press down on the clutch pedal and then take your foot off. you friend will be watching to see if the slave cylinder is pushing the “fork”. if the slave cyl is doing its job and pushing the fork correctly then you have to remove the transmission and start tearing into that. the fork could be broken inside the trans, or you could have release bearing issues. its really hard to deagnose… you havent really been all that discriptive, so if you want more help from us on the forum you need to be descriptive as possible. i’ve dealt with every problem from the clutch pedal to the tip of the slave cyl with my car, and im a hd mechanic, so i can help you out, but i havent had to deal with anything past the fork coming out of the trans. so if its to that point then you need to start tearing into your car.
