Hey guys, I just installed my SS line and I'm trying to bleed the clutch and I've been pumping it forever and ever for more than 2 hours and its still just spitting fluid into the tube, and spitting a lotta air outta it. Did I do something wrong? I'm pretty sure I hooked all the hoses really tight. Remember, I've been screwing the bleeder in, pumping, bleeder out, bleeder in, pumping, bleeder out, etc... for more than two hours and its still just spitting at me. Help please!

 

are u putting fluid into it.sometimes the oil will look like its full but its not.if not post up

 

Its full for sure. everything is good, just not bleeding.

 

are you using a quick bleeder or stock?

 

stock

 

stocks a 2 man job.also try slow stokes.if your pulling the pedal out to quick,it will cause a lot of bubbles

 

are you suppose to get pressure on the clutch at all?

 

after its done with no bubbles,or very very small bubbles,and tighted the pedal should have pressure back

 

All I can say is use 2 people it should only take 10 min max

 

i've done a couple of these on evo.its a 2 man with the stock bleeder,and a 1 man with the speed bleeder.the first time i did it,i was pumping for an hour,and it wasn't working right.reason for it taking that long was because i didn't keep the fluid filled .i have about 4 under my belt now with no probs doing it.

 

nvm, I figured out the problem, it was really dumb.

 

Happen to me too. The damn reservoir looked full and I pumped for hours. Just need to fill the reservoir above the full line and it will fill the clutch side.

 

Slightly off-topic, but speaking of speed bleeders ... I've got the spec. for the Brembos, but what is the spec. for the clutch speed bleeder?

Thx,

jcnel.

 

Make sure you top off the reservior after each cycle. You'll be suprised how fast it drains. Its a really small tank.

 

Check the brake fluid reservoir, right before the hose where the fluid goes to the smaller reservoir. That thing will look full but there is a air pocket that develops in the larger reservoir but it looks full. Have someone pump the peddle while you poor fluid. Then you should have no problem.
