Car: '78 99 Turbo, Manual transmission
I've got the clutch back together, but it's not working. It felt a bit odd before I pulled the engine, now it doesn't work at all.
When I bleed the clutch, I can feel, _sometimes_, that I get a good resistance to the pedal like it's pushing fluid through, and it comes out the slave cylinder end as expected. But, usually, the pedal goes right to the floor with _zero_ resistance. When that happens, the fluid gets pulled back from the slave cyl to refill the master, rather than from the reservoir as expected. I think.
Questions: does this sound like master cylinder problems as I think? If so, could it be just a gummy hose between the reservoir and the master, or is this a master cyl rebuild thing? It's odd that the clutch worked before I took out the b0rken engine, but it did feel strange so it might have been "mostly dead" at that time.
Suggestions? Comments? Ideas? I assume this master cyl. rebuild is done from inside the car, yes?
