Hey guys i installed a crateenginedepot clutch upgrade kit in my car yesterday. After getting everything back together all i had left was to bleed the pedal and this is where i ran into trouble. At first i had no pedal at all after bleeding from the nipple on the clutch pipe elbow and finally after pumping for ever the pedal finally got harder to push. Then all sudden i couldnt push it in at all like it was stuck up and it wouldn't go anywhere tryed to bleed from nipple and nothing so took the nipple all the way out and no fluid at all im stuck now any ideas?? Thanks for the help

 

Anyone?

 

you need to give us more information that is why no one is trying to help you. what year car? what engine? is the pedal is stuck in the up position and there is no fluid in the system? it sounds like your master cylinder is shot then, replace it.

 

Sorry about that its an 07 chevy cobalt ss 2.0 lsj

There was a very weak pedal at first and now its stuck up and no fluid is coming out and u cant push pedal down at all its rock hard and doesnt move?

 

There is fluid in the resiviour right? If you open the bleeder it should let a small amount threw just from gravity alone. If not I would look and the master cylinder. Problem is that this didn't show I till you did the clutch. It might be something from the install. Maybe you need to pull the trans again

 

Ya idk new update is now the pedal is sorta back to regular feeling still weak but does start but u put in gear and let clutch out nothing happens doesnt even stall and i turn car off and can shift through gears with no clutch at ease and i removed the bleeder when it was on lift after vacuum bleeding and still nothing coming out of it

 

if you can release the clutch in gear and the car doesnt move sounds like something messed up with the pressure plate, try raising the rpms to see if it eventually grabs, obviously do this with nothing infront of you.

 

You need a new master cylinder more than likely as stated. I had that happen to me a few weeks ago when trying to bleed my clutch. It moved a little fluid, then wouldn't do anything all of a sudden. After replacing the mc, the fluid moved easily. You can test this by taking the line off of the block on top of the trans and seeing if it pumps any fluid out when you press the clutch. Have rags and a cup ready to catch fluid though just in case it isn't worn out. If it flows fluid out well, then it's a problem with either the tob or clutch as stated.

Hopefully that's the issue. And you should be able to change gears with the clutch out and the car off

 

doesnt matter if theres fluid or not, with teh car in gear and clutch released (fluid or no fluid) the car should move, the pressure plate provides teh clamping force, not the clutch.

 

your right, i didnt realize that op already had the car on and had the clutch out while in gear.

 

Throw out bearing? also if your leaking fluid under the car where the housing meets the engine block take the fluid distribution block off and check for a gasket stuck up inside. happened to me when I did mine last month. if for some reason you need all the parts I hae everything but the clutch disk. Had to reorder a new kit because of a damaged pressure plate on our end.
