garage have had problems bleeding the clutch.

 

incase you dont know ive done auto to manual conversion.

 

what parts wernt removed from the manual?

 

the hard lines were removed, the cylinders, pedal (obviously)

 

something in the engine bay they said???

try running a line direct from the master to the slave bypassing the zeds pipework. You will find it easier to bleed unless there is a problem with the master or slave cylinder.

the clutch worked fine when was in the manual car,

 

and a few weeks before i did the conversion i had a new clutch init!

 

its the same garage doing the work, so they would have bled the car that time??

 

 

any parts missing??

Zeds are bad to bleed anyway. try doing a search you will find all the information you need mate.

iv done this mod, no bleed nipple so they might be a little confused

has'nt he got a postitive pressure bleeding kit..or fill the master and let it sit for a day with the bleed nipple wide open and let good old gravity give you a helping hand;)

ive got a funny feeling that when they removed the lines, that this is the thing their missing,

 

or mayeb didnt remove? im goin to look at the car tomo.

 

isnt this attached to the hard lines?

 

 

(hope no1 minds me using that pic)

im now missing that bit with my new hel pipework, master has a bleed nipple on it? or is it the slave? cant remember prob master

just went down,

 

they didnt know there was a third place to bleed it on the pedal :smw:

pro's then lol!

:confused: on the pedal ????

sorry, by the pedal :smash:

 

the slave cylinder

I used to bleed clutches/brakes on commercials witha 12 volt windscreen washer pump. Bleed it from the slave cylinder back up to the reservoir. In some cases u get a partial pedal, then after u pump the pedal 8 or 9 times, open the lower bleed nipple until the fluid comes (a bit of gravity help). Never been beaten with that way yet.

did you get the clutch bled in the end?

car is still down the garage, it hasnt moved since i told them tho so dont think theyve had a bash yet,

 

should be donw this week tho, taking ages!

 

it was parkt up for a week without them telling me they cudnt do it :rolleyes:

ive got the car back,

 

ive got half a bight on the clutch, but they said to do the rest the car needs to be running,

 

as its pressure assisted or something when the engines on.

 

(the car doesnt idle at the mo coz the IC pipes arnt on)

 

so they said put the pipes on, then when the engine is on it should be fine.

 

this sound ok? or will i still have to bleed a bit when ive got the engine working?
