hydraulic clutch

It was good tonight. I got the driveshafts on, the jeep together and oil in the gear boxes. I cranked it up and after i got gas to the carb it fired right up

BUT

I noticed i had too easy of a pedal on the clutch, way too easy. I had complaiend about a hard clutch pedal but not anymore. The tranny would go into gear, and everything while i was in the garage, but it didnt last long. So i have a clutch issue.

There is plenty of fluid in the MC.
There is no leaks.
Slave cylinder is pushing like it should, but i didnt measure the throw.

It seems like the MC is not holding pressure.

SOOOO I am going to bleed the setup to make sure that isnt it.

IF bleeding doesnt fix, does it sound more like a MC problem or a slave problem?
Since the slave seems to be functioning fine, i am thinking it is the MC since it is not holding pressure. Can a MC go bad even if it is not leaking ??

 

Re: hydrolic clutch

Yes. The seals can leak internally causing just what you describe.

 

Re: hydrolic clutch

OK, i jsut want to make sure. Need to make a game plan before Tellico. Hopefully i still have my other MC sitting in my pandoras box, that would be sweet if it was still there
