sLAVE AND MASTER CYL. FOR HYDRAULIC CLUTCH

[s14guy]

This morning when I started my car it wouldn't go into gear . I tried pumping the clutch in case of an air bubble in the line . No help. So I then shut off the car , and put it in second gear w/ the clutch depressed. When I turned the key the car started rolling forward as it started .(to me that means the clutch is inop.)Then after the engine completely started the clutch started working fine , and has ever since .?<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>??Doesn't make any sense to me. Anyone have any ideas?<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>??

Bleed your clutch. &nbsp;I used to have an 87 Mazda B2000 with a hydraulic clutch, and that slave cylinder that functions your throwout bearing would develop pits, and the piston would then leak hydraulic fluid. &nbsp;

Same thing is happening in what you describe. &nbsp;Your car starts when the clutch is depressed, yet it starts in gear. &nbsp;Hence, your throwout bearing is not being engaged, which would mean your slave cylinder isn't pushing it forward. &nbsp;

As for why it started acting normally, I can't say. &nbsp;I'd bleed it, inspect the hydraulic lines from master to slave, and go from there.
