90 S10. Clutch Bleeding Problems.

[MR2_Lancer]

ok, here goes. clutch was letting off by itself at lights and truck was stalling...had to pump clutch to get pedal feel, then re-engage...think slave cylinder was problem...rebuilt cylinder and have re-installed...system won't bleed...removed and dis-assembled master cylinder to inspect... seems fine(it's less than a year old)... it won't pull fluid from reservoir and put it out the outlet port,

thanks a lot for any advice.

Try reverse bleeding the system, this requires a hand pump usually, although I have a friend with a air tool that works.

Open the bleeder, hook up the pump to the bleeder, put the other hose into the brake fluid, and pump away.

If you see bubbles in the brake fluid container you have it hooked up backwards.

Have a friend watching the top, and tell you when the air bubbles stop rising.

Tighten the bleeder, remove hand pump, check fluid level, and test drive.
