Hey Guys I have a 1990 z32 and I have a clutch problem I just replaced the Master and slave cylinders for the clutch and when I bleed them the pedal doesn't gain any pressure at all but there is no leak in the system and everything is hooked up. Also the fluid flows like it's suppose to in other words there's no blockage in the system either the only thing I can see that might be wrong is the lever for the throwout bearing doesn't move while the pedal is being pumped but that wouldn't have anything to do with it not building pressure would it? I am truly stuck and am in need of asistance thanks

make sure that the rod that connects from the master cylinder to the clutch pedal is the same length. When I swapped my master cylinder, the new rod was shorter, and prevented the pedal from getting proper throw. I'd check that first.

 

don't forget that there's a second bleed point other than the one by the slave.
On the passenger side in the engine compartment, behind the power steering reservoir is another bleeder.

 

don;t forget to get speed bleeders. makes the entire job alot easier.

 

I know exactly which one your talking about I saw it yesterday and thought it was for somthing else Now my question is which do I bleed first the slave or the second bleeder or does it matter thanks again guys for all the help

I bleeded the top one firstthen the one in teh slave. i followed the brake bleeding instruction start with the one furthest from the master cylinder.

 

Accodring to the Factory Service Manual, it says to bleed the slave cylinder first, then bleed the clutch piping connector last (the bleeder on the passenger side fender well)

This is how I bleed mine and had no problem, but as long as you get all of the air out of the system thats all that counts. And yes speed bleeders are your friend.

 

Thanks Guys For all the help now I can come out to the meets when you have them Btw what day do you guys all get together ? So I can come to thanks
