    the first problem u had was the fork came off the pivot ball, which u probally sorted by pushing it back on ,

    when ur bleeding it u will have to keep pulling it back up for a while untill u get the fluid threw and air out,

    lock the bleed nipple up on it, and pump the peddle , pull it back up with ur hand, then after about 10 pumps or so hold it down, and get some one to open the nipple let the air out ,

    then lock it back up , and repeat the process untill u get the pedal to feel right

    Thanks buddy but that's prettymuch what I was doing.
    Is the bleed nipple the 10 nut that holds the steel pipe on the fluid reservoir??
    after pumping the chutch and holding it, when I open the nut it's only fluid coming out.

    It won't bleed should I have filled the slave with fluid before i put it on??
    When i release the nipple on the slave there was some small bubbles at the start but now it 's just fluid coming out.
    The clutch was getting a little pressure and slave it moving slightly but that was it.
    I had to give up as the lad helping me do it was slightly retarded
    I need some proper help I'm no mechanic.
    Thanks for help lads.
    Keep the advise coming, I must be doing smoething wrong

    Any mechanic's in westmeath wanna help me next weekend
    I need to install my hydro too but can't till this is sorted
    The car is just outside kinnegad and I've no trailor to move it.

    is there a bleed nipple on your master cylinder??if there is you need to bleed the master clyinder first then move onto the slave clyinder....pump the pedal a few times to get the fluid around the system...then get some to hold the pedal down then you open the bleed nipple to let air an fliud out then close it an tell the person holdin the pedal to let it up an keep doin that until you get a constant stream of fluid an no air

    Do you mean a bleed nipple or releasing the 10mm nut holding the steel pipe on?
    I need to spend a bit of time at it, when bleeding should the nipple just barely be opened to let out air bubbles??

    Bump this back up


    Alright lads I've a new problem with this.
    I can't bleed the system. I'm bleeding at the master cylinder. Slave cylinder and the junction box which it goes through.
    No air is coming out any where and still no clutch I've kept the master cylinder topped up all along.
    I've been pumping and relesing for hours now and there's no pressure in the clutch pedal won't even bring itself up.

    Would it be the master cylinder itself, maybe a seal gone would that make sense??
