I am at a dead end in my current project, a 4 speed swap into a 300TDT. I am using a 300GD flywheel, brand new pressure plate and clutch, with OEM crankshaft for a 300D.

Problem is I am not getting a clutch pressure. After pumping and pumping, reverse bleeding, gravity bleeding, and playing the waiting game, I still had nothing. I could get fluid to squirt out of the slave, quite a lot actually, but still no pressure in the pedal. When I loosened the bolts on the slave, I could see it piston actuate and make slave move back slightly.

I ordered a new slave and clutch M/C, but I am starting to think it could be the release bearing and pressure plate. Is it possible to order the wrong one? I know there are two types of pressure plates and release bearings. The release bearing I am using fits very nicely in the clutch fork. But could I have messed this part up?

Help?

Thank you
