Clutch fluid only bleeds when I push pedal
Hi,
I got a 97 Honda Civic DX 1.6 SOHC.
I had a clutch fluid leak, which seemed to be from the Slave Cylinder, so I replaced it. Went to bleed it, and opened the bleed screw and no fluid came out as it had done when I had bled the past(approx 5 times over the past 2 years!!!). Even now, if I open the screw, the fluid will only come out if I push down on the pedal, and the pedal is soft after quite a bit of bleeding.
I'm wondering if my clutch is on the way out?
Thanks in advance,
Ralph
