Mushy Clutch Pedal
 

Hi guys,

This my first message on ZDriver, I hope you can help!

My clutch broke a few weeks ago and after reading messages on this site I guessed the failure was somewhere in the hydraulics. I just replaced both the master and slave cylinder and bled the system thuroughly using a synthetic DOT3 fluid.

After all this the clutch is still mushy, it will not build up pressure even after pumping 20-30 times. What am I missing.

It sounds like you might still have air in the lines. You probably need to bleed it again. Does the clutch work, but just seem mushy?

The type of fluid probably isn't your problem, but I wouldn't use synthetic. It could soften up your hoses and seal, requiring replacement.

Go to my link page and see the writeup i did on the SPL Clutch Line installation.
That should clear it up for you. :D
