How You Can Bleed Your CLUTCH Easy - Mazda Miata

[@AlmostChadSmith]

He didnt mention but the guy in the seat needs to press and hold until the bleeder screw is tightened because if you let off the clutch while the bleeder screw is loose youll draw in air. So loosen, press clutch and hold until tightened then release clutch pedal. Repeat this process until the clutch feels nice and stiff and there are no bubbles in the tube coming off of the bleeder.

Is it normal for air to push out after you loosen it again? For example, loosen, press clutch pedal, air and a bit of liquid squirts out, tighten, release the brake pedal, loosen again and air pressure sounds like is escaping, press clutch pedal, air and a bit of liquid squirts out again etc. ?

@@andreiaugustin3809 Are you bleeding you brake or your clutch?

[@andreiaugustin3809]

@@AlmostChadSmith clutch of course :) it is weird, I filled up all the way the reservoir, loosen valve, clutch in, close valve, clutch out, open valve and I can hear pressure being release, clutch in, some air comes out, tighten again, clutch out, loosen again and some air is released, clutch in, close valve again, clutch out etc

[@timklomfa9977]

I have a MX5 NC and used a pressure based bleeding device to bleed the brake and clutch lines. That will pressurize the system and if you loosen the bleeding screws, the brake fluid comes out. Basically I did the same with the clutch, since the NC has a separated bleed valve for the clutch. But is that enough, to just loosen the screew, let the pressure push some fluid through it until its fine and then close? Or do I really need to do the manual pumping stuff?

[@andreiaugustin3809]

Turns out I had a bad clutch master cylinder and it could not push fluid through. After replacing it, it was as easy as pumping the clutch while the valve was closed, then keep the clutch pressed in, open the valve to release the air, close the valve and restart pumping the clutch pedal to push more fluid through the line, then repeat - clutch pressed in, open valve to get air out, close valve, pump clutch again etc

[@miguellott9038]

Geez I saw no bleeding technique given at all. You just kind of glossed over it and then put the cap on

[@marianosagastegui]

That means i have air in the lines and bleeding it will give more pressure on the clutch?

[@sanchobm2078]

Yes

[@rasecno612]

Dope danke, genau das hab ich gebraucht 🎉🎉

[@Ryan_Dye-r]

So, you can keep pumping the clutch petal while the bleeding valve at the slave cylinder is open?
You don't have to keep closing the bleeding valve everytime in between lthe clutch petal being down & letting the clutch petal up?

[@ceili3734]

open valve, depress clutch, close valve, release clutch. then repeat until no more air, like bleeding the brakes. open valve only a quarter turn or else more air gets let in.

Same

[@AY-gu1cl]

if you have no friends, you can put something heavy on the pedal

[@mukychip]

does the car need to be jacked up for this?

[@oliverle8438]

Doesn't necessarily need to be but it's almost impossible to reach the bleeder screw without taking off the wheel

[@mukychip]

@@oliverle8438 ah I see I did'nt think it was so far in there. thanks for the reply your video helped

[@AccentShmaccent]

Should put the Miata model and/or the car year in the title.
