Clutch, Slave, Master Or Tranny?

Yeah the system has been bled numerous time, no air bubbles are coming out at all anymore. I'm going to try and adjust the master, and if that doesn't work, I guess I will be pulling the tranny

The new extended slave rod was quite a bit longer then the stock one. Sitting under the car you can see the clutch fork making it's full swing (as far as it can go), so im guessing that means the the pivot ball needs to be shimmed, or the clutch needs to be replaced with an ACT

What makes me think its not bled right is you said if you pump it up then you get it into gear. It sounds like a combination of the clutch adjustment and improper bleeding.

So, I adjusted the master this afternoon (according to the video), and noticed a good change, but then went out for a drive and after a little while it went back to being tough to shift. I guess I'm going to try and replace the master hopefully tomorrow. It would make more since to do everything possible, before having to take the trans off again. I'm going to do that, and of course rebleed the system.

Side note: The way I bleed it, is a buddy will sit in the car and pump it up, then hold the pedal down all the way to the floor. I then crack the bleeder, and then tighten it back up, and have him pump it up again. That is the right way isnt it?

Yes, but make sure you tighten that bleeder screw before he lets off that pedal. He should have to pull the pedal up on his own.

Are you also bleeding the slave? Push the rod in with your hand as far as it allows, and crack the bleeder again, closing it before you let off the slave rod.

A quick way to check the master is to look under the dash at the boot and see if it's wet or looks like fluid leaking out.
