Anyone know why when I first start my car sometimes, the clutch pedal will be bottomless, and has no feel, like when you bleed brakes and there is no pressure. Then after I push it in, it wont come back out at first, I can pull it out, and push it in, do this a few times and the pedal feel comes back. Drives fine, with pedal feel or without, but I would like to fix it, just for my better feeling.


Any ideas?

Didn't understand that first part...

How:
Putting my toe under it and pulling it out, the car functions just fine with it like that, and right now, transportation is all I use it for. I drive it very old lady like right now. College student with no job means that I can't afford a fix right now, so I use the car to get to work and school, thats it. But thanks for the help.

Pedal will go down, not all the way, but til it gets hard to push, if I push harder, it goes down farther and then comes out slowly, do this enough and the pedal goes back to normal

I dont have a manual...yet >=D

Im pretty sure you bleed it using the same tools you do for the brakes, A mighty-vac or something similar about $25 at any autostore. But I dont know exaclty how it is done, you'll have to wait for someone with a m/t to post up sorry.

Will do, probably when we all get together at the meet, you can help me. You coming on the 8th?

Nice pic in sig there, I was gonna get a rifle similar to those, but can't afford it right now. Can get one on a deal though. 5 mag's , rifle ( black stock ) and rail with red dot sight/laser for $300, used of course.
