Yes, good point. They either go simultaneously or
very close to one another. I actually have a new
master here too, that I'll put in this weekend, and a
new hose will be here tomorrow AM. But like I said, I
was in a rush to get to a car show, so I was just
trying to patch it up and get on the road. But this
problem is unrelated to the original failure, I almost
guarantee it. This problem has to do with me doing
something wrong during the install.
The old slave was physically leaking. I could see the
fluid coming out of it. But it still worked, it just
leaked. I could keep topping up the reservoir and the
clutch worked fine. It needed to be bled, but it
worked.
Now I have nothing. No pressure at all.
I guess if there's no real reason why it shouldn't be
working, I'll just take it all off and do it all from
scratch tomorrow, when I can use the new hose.
It's just frustrating me right now, and I hate not
knowing what I did wrong.
