The clutch master cylinder is giving me a fight. Im trying to adjust it and it either is too soft and it hangs up going into first gear and grinds going into reverse but still goes into reverse. If i go the other way it builds too much pressure and and the clutch slips in every gear because of the pressure build up. Im not moving it much jus a little at a time to get it just right but it just seems like its either too much or too little:banghead:. Please help me im getting very annoyed with this car. Do you think it could still need to be bleed a little more or what do you think? Any advice is greatly appriciated. Thank you everyone for your help!
 
i have been adjusting the pedal. when i have the pedal adjusted to where the clutch slip (bad i know) but i dont have a choice its that way too soft or too hard... anyways when its adjusted like that it seem the more i drive it the pressure builds more and the pedal gets really hard. so does that it needs to be bleed more?
 
Call a friend and let him climb under the car and check if your clutch fork is hitting the bell housing when clutch pedal is pressed.
If the MC is from of the the autoparts replacement i would check the rod is the same length with the OEM.
 
i will try bleeding it again and see ### happens. and the MC that i put in was the same exact one as the one that i had bout so i dont if it has been replaced before or not. but i will keep messing with it and i will let u guys know if i get the problem resolved with the info. that you guys have giving me. Thanks alot for the help!!!

and the ### is "what" sorry for the bad grammer
