I seem to be stuck again, but this time it�s the Clutch Master Cylinder replacement and loss of clutch function afterward (88 GL). I've had a leaking cylinder for a little bit so I took advantage of the long weekend to replace it. It seemed pretty straightforward; I pinched the hose from the reservoir to the cylinder, disconnected the cylinder from the bracket, them took off the two hoses. I installed the new cylinder making sure that the plunger is in place, reconnected the hoses, attached a drain to the bleeder valve at the slave cylinder and directed it into a jar and pumped 3 or more 12 oz. containers of dot 4 brake fluid through the system. I them closed the bleeder valves and tried the clutch. I get nothing! The clutch doesn't engage and I can't enter any of the gears without grinding (only short tests). So what did I miss? What did I overlook? I'm quite confused at this point and advice would be greatly appreciated. Bill H. 88 GL __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Read only the mail you want - Yahoo!
