I was driving the car yesterday and all of a sudden it was pretty
hard to shift the car into first and second gear so I drove her home
right away. I checked the oil level in the tranny. It was fine even
overflowing when I took the screw/bolt out. So we figured that meant
that there was enough oil in there that we did not have to fill it
anymore. SO then we decided to try and bleed the clutch. Yeah you
all forgot to mention that doing this was going to be such a pain in
the ass. Anyway we went and got a "one-man bleed system" for the
brakes (easy bleed). Well that seemed to work now the only problem
is that I have no pressure with the clutch peddle. There were no air
bubbles in the little tube so we tightened up the bleeder nipple
thinking all was fine and we were done. Then I sat down and tried
the clutch peddle. Straight to the floor with no pressure at all.
Lambert even said that when he put his finger on the bleeder nipple
and he felt no pressure at all. I am getting liquid out but still no
pressure. We tried again but still nothing. How we found out was we
tried to drive the car around the block and I stalled it because the
clutch is not engaging. Any suggestions?
