![]() ![]() Immediately install rubber hose to bleed screw to prevent fluid from entering clutch bellhousing. Using suitable socket/wrench, loosen bleed screw.Excessive fluid will be agitated and sprayed around inside the clutch bellhousing by the rotating flywheel, contaminating the flywheel, disc, and pressure plate, resulting in poor clutch engagement. Use care not to allow fluid to drain into clutch bellhousing. Remove clutch bellhousing access cap to expose system bleed screw.If release system is still inoperative, continue with procedure. Actuate clutch pedal briskly at least 50 times. Remove reservoir cap and inspect fluid level.Reverse bleeding is recommended for this system, and requires the use of commercially available injection bleeding equipment. Top off clutch master cylinder fluid level with DOT 3 brake fluid as necessary.ĭue to the angle and design of the turbo hydraulic system components, gravity and pedal bleeding are less effective and less efficient than the reverse fluid injection method (reverse bleeding).If several attempts at purging air from the system are unsuccessful, replace both the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder assemblies. Repeat Step 3 through Step 7 until air is purged. If pedal still feels spongy, or clutch does not fully disengage, air is still trapped within the system. Check and adjust clutch master cylinder fluid level.Torque slave cylinder to case bolt to 168 inch lbs. Re-install slave cylinder into position.Repeat this at least ten times, forcing trapped air upwards and out of the system. Depress slave cylinder pushrod until it bottoms and then release.Damage to the slave cylinder will result. While slave cylinder is detached from the transaxle, DO NOT actuate the clutch master cylinder. Allow the slave cylinder hang, making it the lowest part of the system. Remove clutch slave cylinder assembly from the transaxle case, but do not disconnect from the system.Top off with DOT 3 brake fluid as necessary. ![]() Verify fluid level in clutch master cylinder reservoir.If pedal still feels spongy, or clutch does not fully disengage, excessive air is still trapped within the system. From driver's seat, actuate clutch pedal 60-100 times.If air cannot be removed from the system using this procedure, it is necessary to replace both the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder assemblies. Air in the system typically results in a spongy pedal feel, and/or improper clutch release. It is necessary to bleed the clutch hydraulic release system if the system has lost an excessive amount of fluid and has allowed air into the circuit. As for the engine light, please get the computer scanned and send us the diagnostic trouble code. I recommend bleeding the clutch using instructions pasted from below. ![]()
