dani_r Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) Following on from these threads: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=198626 http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=198270 I was moving the Supra to get it to the workshop to sort it out and now my clutch won't work at all. Before, when I pushed down on the pedal it sucked to the floor and had to still be physically pulled back up. If you tap it even a little bit you can feel it suck to the floor and stay there. Just before getting there, the clutch wouldn't engage at all and i couldn't select any gears. I was stranded and had to be towed. It wasn't until I parked the car up and pressed the clutch pedal without the engine running that I noticed a noise from the MC. It had a little bit of pressure then a 'whoosh' sound, like air was being pushed past a seal or something, almost like there was no fluid in there. The reservoir was, and still is full of fluid but the sound I'm getting suggests that the line is dry. I'm confused. My main intention today was to strip and clean the whole thing based on the advice of Chris Wilson, but this new problem makes me wonder if the bore of the MC is now worn and I need a new unit. Someone please help! Cheers Dan Edited October 18, 2009 by dani_r (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adnanshah247 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 the slave cyclinder might be KO'd or a damaged/snapped clutch cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dani_r Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 I replaced the slave seals etc only last week. Also being a hydraulic system, there aren't any cables. Part of me just wants to buy new units, stick em on and be done with it. But unfortuantely, budget won't allow ATM. If I can save them, I will.

Terminator Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 As you have replaced the seals it sounds like the bore is worn and not allowing the new seals to do their job. Had the same problem with our old RB car, solution new master cylinder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
