ky stage 3 +1 slave bearing 0

Hey guys I just installed my stage three six puck ky clutch and new tob and everything seem to be going fine until about 70 miles in I started losing clutch pressure then I fully lost it and it was just stuck at the bottom so I brought it back to my mechanic this morning after driving it like a goon, tryd rebleeding it tryd vacumm bleeding it and got no where except I noticed there was oil on the bottom of the bell housing is there anyone that can point me in a direction with this I'm pretty bummed so anything will help,

Also when we were vacumm bleeding it it felt like it kept sucking up a lot of air not sure if that means anything or not but oh well

Thanks sebastien

Either 1) the clutch pipe wasn't secured to the tob bearing correctly and it's leaking in the bell housing, 2) the tob is bad out of the box and it's leaking fluid or 3) the black plastic nipple on top of the clutch pipe that meets with the clutch pipe elbow (distribution block) wasn't placed back on the pipe before the elbow was clipped back on the pipe.

It more than likely #1 or #3, but 3 is the easiest one to miss.

Agreed ^. I would guess #1 also with the leaking oil. It is not clutch related, it is something in the TOB/fluid system. Suprised your mechanic didn't know what to do.
