you don't need any tools at all to bleed the clutch, other than whatever size wrench you need for the bleeder screw, i'm confused...and the clutch control system uses brake fluid, that's why they share a reservoir, you can mix all you want...to bleed the clutch properly, you need to over-fill the reservoir, because the master cylinder will pull fluid from the very top of the reservoir.

 

so.... guess what I did? I measured the pedal height, and it was within spec, I said well, I am going to try it, and see if it changes anyhting.... I adjsuted the push rod, at first, it went closer to the floor, then I went the otehr way and lifted it further away. I thought it went way further away from the floor than where it was originally at.... BUT I measured it again, and it was still within spec!!!! and tranny shifts fine now.... so not sure what happened?!

Although, I do now have my SRS light on, but not sure if it is related or not -- don't see how it could be related....

 

Should be completely unrelated.

 

now to figure that out......

 

i have a feeling you broke one of the fingers on the pressure plate..

 

why? I really doubt it... it has been perfectly fine since I adjusted the pedal

I guess later this week, I can pull the panel underneath and look in there.....

I do need to change my oil

oh sorry i totally missed that part where you said it got fixed, i've had a lockout issue due to a bent finger on the pp and it wouldn't come out of gear, thats why i chimed in

 

ok, good..... had me worried

 

If it's an ACT clutch, then it's definitely possible...I had an ACT HD pressure plate break 4 or 5 fingers off, and it flung two of them straight through my transmission case...found them both laying underneath the differential...though when that happened, the sound it made was ungodly, and I was still able to shift. limped it home dry. kept the pieces as souvenirs...ACT requested the clutch back for inspection and I never heard from them again, rotten bastards...ended up getting another ACT, derp!

 

Jesus Christ! sorry to hear man, yeah in this particular situation one of the fingers was bent far enough that was pushing on the clutch dist, therefore never letting it release

 

ah, ok, I see...


anyway you may want to sit down for this one, it's bad...

so yeah.... definitely not my issue. I'm not leaking a drop of anything

 

Wouldn't hurt to take a look at it, you can get these endo-scope cameras for smart phones that support OTG USB.

 

my car works fine now
