too much pressure in clutch line

[lpfootball1341]

for some reason no matter how many times i bleed my clutch i still end up with crazy amounts of pressure in the lines, now the clutch doesnt slip as it shouldnt it being a competition clutch 6 puck and it does engage and dis engage but dont understand how come i have so much pressure in the pedal any ideas? car has new slave and master cylinder as well as clutch and transmission, pedal has been adjusted under the dash board still alot of pressure probably have bleed it around 20 times.

If you have a heavy pressure plate then it will be harder to push the clutch in

You don't bleed the clutch to get rid of the pressure in the line, you bleed it to get rid of the air bubbles, which REDUCES your pressure, along with making disengagement a headache.

i know what youre talking about. my gsx does the same thing. but my tranny is still all stock. at first i was thinking crankwalk. but it runs fine. sometimes i cant get first gear. i just deal with it. well, i hardly ever drive my car but ya, what you can try to do is push the clutch in with youre foot, then slide youre foot off the clutch when its fully engaged. that would cause the clutch to fling back up and hopefully back far enuff to recirculate most of the pressure back into youre master resivor to the proper setting. hopefully this helps. it works every once in a while for me..

When you bleed it you are releasing pressure. Think about it, even if you have pressure built up, as soon as you crack the bleeder there goes the pressure.

Bingo!

The pressure plate is the only thing which makes a clutch pedal harder or easier to depress.

Heavier pressure plate=harder to push pedal
Lighter pressure plate=easier to push pedal
