Hello Healey owners. I just registered on this site and wanted to introduce myself and get some help. My name is Jim Stevens and have owned a 1967 BJ8 since 2002. I live in the Atlanta area and a member of the Atlanta AH Club. I look forward to learning a lot from the experience on this site.
Now my problem. My clutch master cylinder failed so I bought a new one instead of trying to rebuild the old one. I have removed and replaced the failed one and bled the brakes, but the clutch appears to still have air in the lines as there is zero pressure on the clutch pedal. I have a dual brake/clutch hydraulic reservoir. How do you bleed the clutch master cylinder? My shop manual only says to bleed the hydraulic system.
Any insights would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim
