Well, I am not sure if it was an act of god or just luck. I was saying prayers last night before bed. I was sitting in my car (with the front on jackstands and the rear ready to be lifted with my jack) and i was pumping the clutch pedal. After about 50 pumps I started to get a pedal!!! I took my car off the jackstands and Sure enough my car is letting me put her it into gear! During my test drive I have noticed: grabs better than it ever has before, and it feels completely different! BUt in a GREAT WAY! I was wonding since i finally have pressure built up with my clutch should I bleed it as in the how too instructions. (LIke is it necessary to let the air out because of the trouble I was experiencing?) Or just leave it alone? As is... I was wondering were the slave cylinder was located. So, their is two spots to bleed the clutch? On top of the tranny and the slave cylinder? The car is driving great but I do not understand what happened!!! Yesterday and this mouring I could not get my car into gear at all! And, the clutch pedal could be pushed down effortlessly... THANKS FOR YOUR INFO JIM! You always such a great help!



Congratulations!!!

I think that you need to do no more. If the clutch pedal is working properly now, I doubt that you have any air in the system. It is possible that you did have a little that has worked itself out by sitting. This doesn't hppen often in brakes, but does sometimes with hydraulic clutches. As far as I know, there is no bleed port on the clutch master. You should not need to bleed it.
