I am in need of your help to get my baby running!

[funkalicious21]

I got everything in except for my interior! I finally got the last axle in, radiator, battery, all the fluids except for tranny fluid because i don't have a 23mm socket. It was never drained in the first place so im good there.

The only things that trips me out is how come my clutch pedal just hits all the way to the bottom and stays there. I thought it'd pop back. No pressure, nothing. I tried bleeding it but nothing moving the fluids. checks all lines, everything seems okay. XD IDK.

I also tried to start the car but there wasn't anything going on. No clicks or anything but at least i have power?

So im wondering if you guys can help me by giving me some advice on what's next do.

Tomorrow ima check all wires again to see if i missed anything. It got too dark by the time i got finished with most of the stuff.

So what exactly did you do just before posting on here? It would help to know what you did as so to back track your events. Sounds like you need to bleed the master and slave cylinder really good based on what you have said. Good Luck

Try a Mighty Vac or Motive Products Power Bleeder for bleeding the clutch/brakes. You could probably borrow a tool like this from your auto parts store.

you cud jist get a bleeder from autozone this way when you bleed it u can tell the pressure.. basically sounds to me like when your bleeding the line your not buildin up the pressure which is y its stayin down.. also an easy way to do it is to have someone pumpin the clutch while your bleeding it and slowly close the line shud work

When I did a Ze swap in my probe I was bleeding the clutch for a while, if you had the lines all apart like I did it could take a little, check the main relay And main fuse would be a good place to start on that issue.

Ill see how much it cost to get a bleeder from auto zone. As far for the car not cranking, are there other reasons? I know there's a lot, but is there somewhere i can start at? Thanks guys!

 

[boostedprotege]

if its not cranking at all i'd start lookin at your starter check connections and even try grounding it to see if it works with direct power.. n its free to use them from autozone u jist pay the fee but you get it refinded back to you when you return the tool..

 

[funkalicious21]

Ill take a look at the fuse and check the starter today. I'll let you know how that goes. And i'll probably go check out autozone. =D Thanks for the quick response guys!

 

[funkalicious21]

I check fuses and starter. They seem fine. What should I do next?

 

[pw~mp5]

Clutch switch. I am assuming you are running an ECU from a 5 speed and the associated harness.

 

[funkalicious21]

Clutch switch?! Yeah. Msp ecu and harness. The only thing that is boggoling my mind is that I can't find the two connectors that connect to the clutch pedal. I've looked everywhere.
