    Default Integra Clutch ?

    I'am having trouble with my clutch pedal engaging. I filled it up with fluid to the max, but it stil wont let me put it in gear. Im new to hondas and was wondering if anyone had any ideas. Thanks in advance.

    How does the clutch pedal feel? It could be a number of things

    i can push it in with no resisitance, all the way to the floor and i would have to pull it back up with my hands or foot. it sticks to teh floor. i did have no fluid in it before, then filled it but still nothing happens. the fluid seem to help but then went back to sticking and not engaging.

    Cluch MC/Slave/lines leaking? Any work recently to introduce air to the lines? Does the slave engage the fork? How old is the clutch? All bolts holding the clutch pedal assembly tight?

    ...last question might seem odd, but after an auto to manual swap, I forgot the upper mounting bolt and the whole assembly would flex...felt like an air bubble in the system.

    From looking at your car last night, your slave cylinder is toast bro.

    *a sudden loss of fluid (within a day - severe leaking @ the slave cylinder) is a telltale sign of the weakest link of the honda hydraulic design clutch going out.

    I'll walk you through how to replace it when you get off work bro.

    Yet again Uptown401 posts up words/phrases that make no sense:

    "cynlinder" - what is this?

    "close nut...pump it...do process for 3 to 5 times untill pressure builds up...or looses the nut on the slave " - are you giving instructions to my girlfriend in this part?

    "fluid squrks" - usually we refer to this as "skeetskeet."

    Don't pump the pedal when the bleed valve is open...just steady pressure on the pedal until the bleed valve is closed...then pump the pedal to build line pressure and repeat.
