T-Rex Donating Members 98 Member For: 12y 3m Gender: Male Posted 20/04/16 10:19 AM Share Posted 20/04/16 10:19 AM Guys, Put in slave cylinder with the remote line - the absolute nightmare won't bleed properly. All I can make out is that the nipple is leaking through the thread and sucking air back that way as well. I started bleeding it old school and it seemed to be working however I've had enough of it for tonight and will try again tomorrow maybe. Does anyone know a way to stop the nipple doing that so I can use a one man bleeder? Is it a faulty nipple? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivr only ever got them to bleed by gravity feed for a while, then just go back and forth like a million times on the pedal really fast. Like real fast. . Just move the pedal a very little bit.

Do this Crack Nipple Helper pushes pedal 2/3 or travel Close Nipple Release pedal Top up fluid Rinse Repeat The pump/pump "crack it"... "let got" close nipple technique doesn't work too well with this system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get in car and pump the pedal like a mother focker till it pulls a good pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Rex Donating Members 98 Member For: 12y 3m Gender: Male Posted 23/04/16 04:53 AM Author Share Posted 23/04/16 04:53 AM Ahhhh so I subbed a mate in, bled in no time! Final diagnosis..... The piston isn't disengaging the clutch... They were like for like so I can only assume it's dead on arrival or something of that sort. I'll be pulling the box tonight to put the old one back in, anyone have any helpful insight if It could be something else I've overlooked before I get under there??? Pedal feel is normal (now it's bled) but in gear starts with clutch in it tries to move ie on grab point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
