Wow, like another of your followers, I was perplexed and at the end of my tether by the time I watched you video. I have an old Alfa Romeo Giulia Super and I renewed the clutch slave cylinder but none of the standard methods of bleeding worked at all. I had a buddy to press the pedal etc.... but I also have a vacuum gun the same as yours but used in the normal way did not work at all.
Watch your video, went back in the garage and sucked air out of the master cylinder as per your instruction and bingo perfectly working clutch. I don't know how to thank you enough because I read lots of stuff on the forums and watched a couple of youtubes without success, so you saved the day!!I have subscribed and look forward to any future time saving videos...many thanks, Brian
Great bit of kit, Frank
Worth a try. Thanks.
This amazing.. you make it look easy.. Thank you for the tips🤩❤️
This video is gold😊
Love your video !!! Thank you. Been pulling my hair out on the damn master. Can’t wait to try this trick to get air out of top !!! Thanks
I was at the end of my rope and perplexed because this wasn't my first time with this type of hydraulic TOB. I have a SuperCharged Gen V LT4 with a T56 magnum that I was replacing the clutch on. I knew it was a PITA, but was forging ahead anyway. I tried everything, pressure bleeding, vacuum bleeding and even a direct shot with a syringe. Nothing worked, the pedal was limp, no feel whatsoever. I had watched every video on TH-cam except yours, then the light went on. Took me 2 times on top and 2 times on the bottom to finally get the bubbles out and get a decent pedal.
Thanks very much for showing me another alternative rather than going nuts............. As a side note, you don't need those expensive $400=$500 dollar TOBs, any standard LS1 ('97-2002 Camaro) will work fine with the T56. I paid $54 for a LUK bearing made in Mexico.
Thanks for the comment! I’ll keep that in mind next time!
This is the way I set mine up after changing the master cylinder but I feel I need to bleed it more cool way of doing it
Even on the e36, this is a pain in the backside, without the right tool. Regards, Nico.
Can you press the clutch in while it has 20psi of vacuum..will it cause damage
From where can I buy these tool?
Hello, thanks for the video. I have Fiat Bravo 2 1.6 multijet 105hp. From 1-2 weeks I have an issue with the clutch - when I am going on first and reverse gear the car is vibrating and annoying rasping sound is heard on the front of the car. Sometimes I am not even able to shift the gears and when I turn off the car and pump the clutch and then the car start shifting and driving off without vibrations. Could it be a problem with the clutch release bearing? Or because of old brake fluid and air in the system? Thanks in advance!
Can you press the clutch in while its still at 20psi..will any damage be caused
I suspect something like this on my A5. Clutch was not returning, and garage said it had a decent amount of air when they bled it with a "power bleeder". but, a couple of weeks has passed and the it has stuck half way just a couple times. only takes a nudge to make it return but i suspect it will get worse. It seems like a leak somewhere is creating air in the system. does this sound likely?
Definitely air in the system
Can you apply this same concept to the brakes as well?
You CAN use a vacuum bleeder for the brakes on each caliper! Absolutely!
Should work all it's doing is speeding the job up
Tiny bubbles in my 🍺
you could also try using a turkey basting syringe
That won’t have enough vacuum to pull
@@Garageaholic lol dude seriously😅
Hope this saves my ass
