Bleed my clutch?

Post by The_Great_Tonge »

well...my car is actin up agian. i have a tiny leak in my read drums that i dont know what i can do about, so my break fluid keeps getting low. but when the brake fluid gets low, then the clucth starts loosin pressure. i had my buddy at lexus bleed it twice for me but now i dont see him as often. i need to know how to bleed to the clucth because i added break fuild but the clucth is still kinda soft, and im tired of havin a softy boy clutch. please help...

do u have a 1.6 or 1.8 liter mx-3 what year is it and is it manual or auto. with my 93 1.6 manual mx-3 u have to jack up the front the front end and there is a bolt near ur cross member on the bottom of the transaxle that will drain ur tranny fluid. to fill it up screw the bolt back on the go to the top of the transaxle and take ur speedometer cable out of the transaxle and i think u put in 4 quarts of tranny fluid.
i shall drop and rx-7 twin turbo in my 93 4 banger

hmmmmmmmmmmm........i had it bleed twice before this, when i just put the clucth in. It a 1.6 dohc and i didnt have to jack the car up or anything. i just couldnt see what he was doing because i was pumpin the clucth and he is outta town now so i gotta figure this out. about the brakes, i dont know where the brake fluid is leaking, it does it like every other month or so. i dont see any leakage but its going somewhere. :shrug:

Take the drums off, look at the wheel cylinders. It's probably coming from there.
