HELP! Clutch HYDRAULICS!
Posted by P. Davis [Email] (more from P. Davis) on Tue, 21 Sep 2004 16:48:09

I really need some help here. I have a completely new clutch and hydraulic system (friction, pressure, release bearing). The master, flex hose, and slave/seal are also new. This is for a 91 9000t 5spd.
The system has been bled successfully (many times). The clutch works as it should...for about 3 days (of city driving), and then starts going to the floor at random and eventually will fail until a bleed is done - then it works fine... for another 3 days or so. I don't see any leaks like the slave did when it failed, so I'm guessing the system is slowly "sucking" air into the system. Could the slave or seal be causing this? Supply hose from reservoir?
I have put 2 working master cylinders in and the same thing happens so I'm ruling that out. Has anyone recieved a faulty flex hose or slave cylinder?
I'm at the point of dropping the trans again and doing some detective work.
Kind of at my wits end here because I don't know what would be causing this. Wife refuses to drive anymore for errands.
Going through DOT 4 like it's going out of style.
