Hydraulic Clutch issues

[driftingmustang]

OKay, so lately my clutch has been having an issue were it has a dead zone that progressively gets worse the less I drive the car. (no ressistance, engages at the bottom). So I bleed the lines refilled it and bleed it multiple times because the fluid was black so a basicly tried cleaning the system out figuring ut was overdue for a change and that was the source of my problem or there was air in the lines. did this and for about a day it was great, felt like brand new.

Now its doing it again except driving around or pumping the clutch doesnt help, it instead makes it worse. I cant find a leak and my reservoir is full, the slave and master were changed less than a year ago. What is wrong?

(you may call me a retard if you wish as long as your informative, lol)

Bad slave cylinder?

Have you gotten rid of the clutch dampener? It frequently traps air and it's really difficult to bleed since the bleeder faces the side instead of the top.

Search and you will find the answer. It is on all of the major forums. For some reason I have bad luck with clutch hydraulics. The master and slave always seem to take a shit on me. But I would get rid of the damper first. Easy and free.

damper is already gone.... what next. Probaly gonna replace the slave and if that dont do the trick than the master.

Also remember: Before replacing parts, it's best to troubleshoot the entire system.

Also remember: Auto Store brand Clutch Master, and Clutch Slave cylinders are known to fail often. You're only options are OEM, or to go with a wilwood setup (same basic cost)
