Default 92' 6-speed question????

My dad has a 92' six-speed vette and has been having problems with it losing hyd. fluid....to the point the clutch gets too low and car wont start...does this ring a bell for anyone? We're putting it up and are wondering best ways to bleed ...check clutch assembly...etc.

Can anyone help? Thanks! Ken

You should check out this thread.....

I documented the way I bled my system a couple of weeks ago.

It looks like you have something leaking (master, slave, hose or combination thereof). You will need to find out were the leak is coming from and replace whatever might be required before spending your time bleeding the system.

That thread says it, I am sure, but, GM is having a crap load of problems with their hydraulics right now. You may not want to go to GM for these.

The leak has to be in the master, slave, or hose between them. Look for fresh fluid. Remember that the master can leak at the rear and the fluid can go into the interior, so pull the carpet back and check carefully.
