Alright so I just swapped my stock clutch for the ACT hDsS clutch and street flywheel and ss clutch line. I got everything back together and I am bleeding the clutch and the pressure has increased slightly but the clutch only returns out about half way.

I checked for any leaks and I have bled the clutch for almost and an hour and nothing...can't get it to return fully.

I heard maybe moving the pin out on the master cylinder? Any ideas or is that a good idea?

Thanks as always.

 

Are u bleeding it with a machine or pumping the crap out of it??

 

Pumping the crap of it...I think I saw in the manual to not use any pressure bleeding systems.

 

Should I use a pressure bleeder? If so what one would you recommend for our cars?

 

Update: bled the clutch for almost 2 hours with pushing on the slave cylinder a couple times to make sure it was fully extending and compressing. Pedal now returns fully but still mushy at top...if I drive on the highway and not use the clutch, I can push it in and it feels perfect...but if I use it while city driving the pressure is weaker but again comes back after not using it for awhile.

Do I just need to bleed it more or maybe the clutch master cylinder bad even though it was okay before clutch install?

 

What did you go with for fluid?

 

Some dot 4 from autozone.

 

Mine was the same way after my ACT install. Just drove it for a while and it came back to its natural location and never pumped or bled the system. I now have over 6k miles on it and I havent had any issues with it and while it is stiffer than stock, I do love my clutch.

I hope everything works out!

 

I have almost 300 miles on the clutch and it is so inconsistent its killing me. I have the clutch adjusted all the way out so it should be releasing high but some times it releases an inch off the ground and other times near the top, I don't get it. I'm going to try and bleed again and maybe take apart the master cylinder.
