Clutch problem

<< < (4/4)

To add to Andrew's execellent advice, add one way valve/tube to bleed nipple and this will prevent any air from sneaking it's way back in, and also keep your drive clean;-)

I dont know if defender clutches have the damper, but my problem was the same as yours but on me disco, had to nigh on put me foot through the bulkhead to engage the clutch.  Changed everything in the clutch and the cylinders and it turned out to be this £8 damper, its the bit that actually makes the pressure for the pedal apparently cos it restricts the fluid or something like that!

But as i say i dont know if defenders have them as well :D

I had a series 3, needed the clutch bleading went under to look for the bleed nipple and saw two pipes and no bleed nipple :?

The previous owner the crafty sod had ran a piece of pipe from where the bleed nipple should have been round the side of the bell housing and I found you could access the new nipple on the end of the pipe from below the passenger floor, which was not held in by all the bolts, so it was a quick release job to lift, very much easier to deal with
