I was attempting to install the corksport clutch line but could not get one of the ends to fit properly(i think it is due to my car being australian. Any i put the old one back on and now my clutch just disengages totally when i push the clutch down but it won't spring back up. So the clutch pedal gets stuck on the floor. I didn't bleed it so i think that might be the problem. But all help is much appreciated.
 
mine was a really tight fit, i ended up beating it into place. I read others had to grind the one side slightly to get it to fit.

Seems you lost a lot of fluid, and have air in your lines. you are gonna need to bleed your line.
 
What does this actually do? b/c i am going to be installing a new clutch by end of this month.

Its similar to brake lines...If you get a heavy duty clutch, with a very strong diaphragm spring, there is more pressure forced back into the line (from the clutch) when you press the clutch pedal...It just gives better disengagement with a heavier clutch...it won't do much with a stock or similar load clutch...And don't get confused by thinking it makes the clutch any stronger...It has no effect on anything when the clutch is engaged (thats pedal released), it only helps to disengage it (pedal pressed)
