If you still have the push to start issue, you can use a loner rod. That said, if you get to the longest rod and still have the issue, then with 100% certainty your issue lies elsewhere. Generally it means you've slightly dislodged the start sensor from the side of the master cylinder during the install of a stainless clutch line at the same time. There is an easy procedure to check if your issue lies in rod length or elsewhere: - take the slave out of the transmission and hold it fully compressed by hand - have someone push the clutch pedal exactly once and try to start the car - if it starts, you need a longer slave rod. If it doesn't start, your issue is elsewhere
Sweet! Had no idea it was this easy (in theory). Can’t wait to snag one of these!
super informative! Something else for me to upgrade when I change out the OEM clutch line to a braided one.
would i still be using the oem length rod even if i saw the 2 lines and have push to start issues?
