clutch doesnt engage all the way, the car is awd, slave cylinder is fwd is that my problem?? ive read up on this and lookin for assurance..lol is that even a word

 

engage as is it will not decompress and allow you to put it in gear. Or engage as it slips when you jam on the gas?

 

it doesnt want to go in gear, it will grind if i try to go in gear, went to pick up awd slave but the people at the parts store keep on giving me tha fwd slave...if someone can give me the part number for awd slave cylinder, that would probly help me.

 

btw car is a 1g awd

 

the fwd and awd are the same part.. so if you have replaced it and assume that they are giving you the wrong part then that's not the issue. You have one of two things that might be the issue. One the fluid isn't getting pushed correctly. This is from the master cylinder that is on the fire wall. It has a adjustment which sometimes the set screw can back off and cause it to walk its way out. This isn't that case allot but sometimes it is.The seals most likely are bad in it. If you look under the steering column you will see the plunger that the puddle pushes. if there is any fluid around or near it... look at the shaft to see it follow it to the fire wall look at it. Also on that shaft is where the set screw is. any fluid says its most likely bad. Ok if it has nothing to do with that. which it has a good chance of being. Is the system being bled correctly? is all the air out of it just like when you do the brakes!!! Its master or slave. Or in some cases I've seen a throw-out bearing break and cause the same issues. And its not that is does not work its where the seems come together and split when you push on it and does not apply the pressure over the basket evenly... I still have that bearing that did this to me once upon a time.

 

does the pedal feel stiff and what does it do when depressed, was the system bled properly??

 

car was bled properly, master is a lil sqeeky but no fluid leaking anywhere clutch is still solid after bleeding about 4 days ago, its not leaking...I read up about fwd slave cylinder being bigger so awd master cylinder cant compensate for the rest of movement unless i get bigger master, ordered new slave should be here by tues

 

i wrote all that then you said 1G.. i was thinking it was a 2g. i know all about the 2G's and 1G's ive done a shit tons of engine builds in each. Now as far as the master and slave on a 1g i really could be 100% sure that they are the same. I would be really surprised if they are different. I think the only difference they could have if any is the plunger on the slave might be a lil longer. So you should be able to use the pin from one to the other. A lil sqeeky might and should mean that the seals are is good shape. Just because its not leaking does not mean its not bad. It simply might just not be building allot of pressure and pushing back to the reservoir.

 

yeah i believe its shorter but i sold him this setup and was workng fine when i tore it down before the sale, the only thing i can think of the seal in the slave is wore from removing and puting back but he says theres no fluid leaking anywhere, "steve" pull the rubber off that holds plunger if there is excessive fluid in there then yeah slave cylinder but if not, i would take another look at your clutch and presure plate

 

nononononn drrigby the slave cylinder that was on the car was shot..so i used the slave cylinder from the fwd tan car my bad for misleading you guys, the two are different bore so pressure was diff, the push rods are identical i think..the awd slave i had would have worked but seals were blown I tried using that first trust me, I had a feeling the fwd slave was not going to work but I tried it anyways..new ones on its way. Should be here by tuesday
