Doing the vacuum with a self priming pump is genius i been f ing with this clutch and the master worked fine before swapping my motor and the damn clutch is the only thing, i am gonna do this, air is for sure the problem its been driving me nuts. Thanks for posting
Dude….I’m fighting this monster right now!!!! Had to put a new clutch slave and master in a 2002 Honda civic. 2 days later….clutch pedal goes to the floor. Maybe I gotta do like you said…banging my head!
U da man, make more videos dude u killed it, hitting the key points and fast.. zip tie was icing on the cake. I have a 2004 civic ex and i have done the timing belt 2 times in 14 years and just about everything has been a struggle to learn until this vid. I have rear brakes to do and clear coat issues on the driver side if u got any tips on them i am all ear or eyes
I bet I’ve done well over 100 clutch master cylinder’s, I’m working an ‘01. Civic EX, I have never had to work so hard to do what should be a 2 hour job! Been bleeding the system for 2 days , just now starting to get some pedal! Still don’t think I have gotten all the air out oof it!
Found that the new master was bad, replaced it and went through 2 bad slave cylinder’s before I was able to bleed the system! I guess it might have paid off to go through Honda and get new parts, instead of the local shops best from China.
I was ready to give up send this car to the scrap yard and then I seen this holy Grail of a video I need to try this I can’t get my pedal off the ground
I figured it out i used a syringe full of fluid attached it to the hose for the clutch master cylinder. Then attached a bottle of fluid with a hose to the bleeder screw and pump the clutch pedal. After the system been filtered close the screw then pump the clutch until you can resistance
I'm having a bitch of a Time bleeding the clutch on my 6-speed Accord we did it for 8 hours yesterday and still got nowhere. I'm wondering if I need to get a vacuum bleeder. My friend said that they are extremely picky about how their bled. He said if there's even one tiny little air bubble in the system it will not work.
Yeah man if you ran the normal bleed process and had both people doing their part correctly and it didn't work it definitely could be a bubble. Or even possible bad master or slave cylinder. I've never had this vehicle so I can't say much but if it has a high spot in the clutch line or a dip down and back up like this civic has it can definitely be a bubble that don't wanna get through. Good luck man
Hi everybody , these are not tough to bleed , 1 make sure every joint connection on the entire line is nice and tight and not sucking in air , 2 if the master is new bench bleed it , 3 , no need to have someone push the clutch pedal in . Go to the slave take it off the tranny , have a hose connected to the bleeder , push in the nipple on the slave push air out close bleeder , let the nipple retract , open bleeder push nipple back in close bleeder let the nipple retract . Watch the reservoir level , keep filling it up , you’ll see it goes down quick , keep doing this until no more bubbles appear . Now . Re install slave back onto Tranny. (Open bleeder push in hold close bleeder) reinstall nipple onto fork . Tighten slave bolts . Go check your pedal 😉

You saved my car I put duct tape around the 1/2in hose to 1/4in hose, connect that to the bleeder…. And suck the air right out. Thanks man

Pressure bleed or suction bleed, I like pushing fluid rather than pulling it, just seems to work faster.
I'm having the same problem to bleed my clutch
Here I am trying to get my 03 pedal back
Did it work??
