heavens to betsy. Ok, thanks to all who have helped me so far. I put the rebuilt slave back in (I replaced seals myself) and have my dad push on the clutch pedal while I watch. The slave pushes the pressure plate all the way in. Awesome.
The problem... when he pushed on it, the rubber hose that feeds the slave squirted from a tiny hole. So, I cut the rubber line past the hole, and reinstall the hose to the slave and reclamp the hose clamp. I bleed the system (gravity bleed on slave side with 8 foot ladder, and pressure bleed with air pump after gravity bleed).
Now when I press on the clutch, it is rock solid but the slave only moves about 3mm! Just barely noticeable to the eye. If I push down on the clutch pedal slowly, it will eventually get to the floor (after like 20 seconds) but I can hear sounds coming from the clutch master, probably the seals under stress and passing fluid.
It is almost as if the slave is clogged or something. What the hell. I am going to die from brake fluid poisoning before I get this thing fixed. If you have any suggestions, Id love to hear them. Otherwise thanks for reading my rant.
Rob
