Okay, heres the deal. Got the car with the clutch promlem first off. So the clutch pedal feels very stiff and normal, but i cant get it into gear, just grinds. I could pump the pedal and get it into gear before but no anymore. So me and my friends bled the clutch system for days and still nothin. One thing wierd was when we bleeding it was when holding the pedal down, then releaving pressure then closing it, the pedal would not come back up by it self. Still wont go in gear, and dont know what to do. Any help is appreciated. thanks

use a vaccuum bleeder to do teh clutch - 29$ at autozone or napa

if thats not it u could have a broken clutch pivot or forkor something else - if a bleed with a vac (mines a mightyvac) bleeder id pull the trans off and see whats goin on.

how are you so sure of this. i see the slave cylinder moving when we pump the clutch pedal so i think the clutch master cylinder or whatever you call it works.

Because the pedal doesnt come back up. Its vacuum issues.

Adjust the shaft coming out of the MC that attaches to your petal. I had this same problem a few days ago. This will give you the pressure and petal feel that you are looking for.
