Replaced clutch master and slave a few months ago. Never was great, but now cannot go to first or reverse. Worry it is clutch, but could be bleed problem.
Question: How far should the slave rod push out of the slave cylinder? I get 1/4 inch movement. Suspect that is too little, but who out there may know? If normal....clutch.
The clutch has 50,000 easy miles.
My bleeding method with tunnel off is to open bleed screw 1/4 turn, push pedal and watch fluid flow out. Did that 5 or so times. Steady flow. Also took slave off and gravity bled under car.
If bleeding I read about pushing in the cylinder while bleeding, but not clear to me how it is done.
Also may be flexible hose too old.
Thanks.
