Scrub question! Rebleed necessary??

So I just recently put the tranny back into my 95 s14 and was thinking prior to dropping the transmission, that since my clutch fluid was replaced 3 weeks prior along with the master and slave cylinder, that my slave would keep the pressure in the clutch line. (Sorry for the run on.) I put everything back together and aside from the bogging which I believe is related to the distributor and the lines/plugs, the clutch doesn't disengage and it won't shift into gear without an obnoxious amount of effort.

Did I fux something up when reinstalling everything or could this simply be a re bleed fix?

Much appreciated for the help

unless you disconnected the hydraulic line, you should not have to re-bleed it, if it was good before. I'm guessing that you installed a new clutch? you may need to check the pedal adjustment. Have someone sit in the drivers seat and press the pedal down. Do you see full movement at the slave cylinder?

Slave is fully functional, I checked that first to ensure the push fork was working correctly. Clutch also was real tight prior to dropping the tranny so I'm left thinking either the push fork isn't operating correctly or it's just a rebleeding fix.

if the "push fork" is operating correctly then bleeding will not change anything. when you say "clutch was real tight", what are you referring to?

did you replace the clutch? why did you remove the trans in the first place?

you need to give us details if you hope for any useful information.

Maybe you installed the disc backwards...

Well, I tossed in a stage 2 clutch into the mostly KA engine and tranny, it ran for about 750 miles before the clutch pedal started chattering and not disengaging correctly. When we dropped the transmission initially we thought it was the TOB, but as we found out the guide cylinder on the front transmission assembly plate somehow snapped. Once I snagged a new plate and replaced the throw out we tossed the transmission back up and here we are.

By tight I mean the clutch had little play and was very responsive, it was an auto manual swap and it felt like garbage when I picked it up 4 weeks ago, was near perfect before the guide cylinder snapped and now here we are.

Also no way the plate can be backwards unless you really aren't paying attention....

I thought you had just changed the clutch.
I maybe have misunderstood that.

No worries man, but yeah everything is installed correctly to my best knowledge, pressure plate and clutch were aligned with the tool. Just don't know why/how my slave lost pressure in the clutch line when the slave and master clutch cylinders are new and the clutch cable wasn't disconnected because the fluid is new so I didn't think it was necessary

I would bleed the clutch line just to be safe. Idk I'm paranoid when it comes to these things. If after the bleeding it still feels the same I would take the tranny out and recheck everything again
