47822, No pedal pressure on clutch pedal Posted by zhr420, Mar-29-03 02:52 PM
ok so i was drvin along and when i go to shift into second after stoping at a light there is no more pedal pressure and i can't shift normally. the car was runnin fine so i drove her home open the hood and see that there is no clutch fluid, you know what i mean. i check the clutch line, the line under the intake and it looks fine no leakage but when i looked under the car on passenger axel there is alot of fluid that is leakin it looks like brake/cluth fluid. my brakes are workin fine, before someone asks about the master cylinder. what could the problem be? what is in that area that could leak all the clutch fluid? later "Z"

I had something similar happen, my clutch softened up over a period of about 5 minutes, so i had to drive home without using the clutch cause it wasnt working. When i got home i saw that the hard clutch line going into the transmission had a leak. My fix was putting on a new hard clutch line.

no sure what you mean by no clutch fluid, but the lines for that fluid is on the driver's side and not passenger. I bet your pressure plate is about done and your clutch is about to go.

my clutch is fine i just got it done three days ago, but that beside the point. what i meant was that under the car where the axel for the passenger side tires mount into the trany, that was where the fluid was drippin from, in that area. so my question is what is down there that would make all my clutch fluid drain. i think that makes sense :9 later "Z"

your clutch slave cylinder maybe...check the bleeder valve to make sure that it didnt come open on you. Mine did when i was driving down the highway cause it was rubbing on the crossmember and i lost all pedal pressure also...had to drill a hole in the crossmember so it wouldnt rub and open the valve.

Check the clutch master cylinder also. If you look up the clutch pedal, you will see a pin that connects from the pedal and goes through the firewall. If there is fluid coming from that area, then you should replace the Clutch Master Cylinder. -derek
