Reply to "clutch master"

Emmanuel,

Don't give up on your new master just yet. If you have pushed the clutch pedal all the way to the floor while attempting to bleed the system, there is a good chance the piston is stuck at the end of the bore. If this is the case, you will have to disassemble the master cylinder to free it. An air line might help.

When bleeding the clutch or brakes, only ever pump the pedal half way down (even on a new master cylinder). On an old master cylinder, there could be rust beyond the area that the piston normally travels. This rust can damage the seals and prevent the piston from returning.
