    I FU(KED UP. Clutch bleed FD Civic

    Hi,

    I dun goofed today. Got a bleeder kit and was bleeding the clutch fluid on a car. It legit looked poo colour. Anyways as I was pumping the pedal with a hose attached to the slave bleeder to a bottle, I let the master reservoir go dry. Now the system is flushed with fresh fluid but I have no pedal feel. I have tried pumping it four times, holding it down, open and close the bleeder and pulling the pedal back up. It's been over an hour now.

    Right now I am in the process of gravity bleeding it, to get some fluid dripping. But its been 30 mins and nothing.

    I am afraid I ****ed it up and might have to get a tow to a mechanic so they can bleed it with an air compressor.

    Any ideas? What should I do?

    bench bleed the master cylinder
    or if you don't wanna take it out just disconnect the line and start bleeding it

    Just a thought
    Common for later gen hondas to have terrible master and slave cylinders - be careful as you can root the seals and thus lining quick smart.
