Default Car will not start Update.

I jumpered the neutral switch and she fired right up. No clutch still though :mad I'm going to try bleeding the system again ( I don't think I did a very good job, Pedal's mushy). I can't believe I need a new clutch after 27k easy miles. Thanks for the Help :) :)

You mean the clutch switch?

It's no day at the beach bleeding the clutch system. Phoenix injector helps a lot on the ZF, not sure with yours. Some of the 4+3 guys can probably help a lot more than I. Did you disconnect the slave and raise it as high as possible?

Neutral Safety Switch. Behind the Pedal. Not a whole lot of room down there. I put a hose over the bleeder and ran it into a cup. I then proceeded to knock the cup over. What a mess

Sounds like a normal afternoon in my (1/2) driveway.

BTW, any idea how to get PS fluid off of blacktop? :rolleyes:

PeteL, if you don't have a cat, buy some cheap clay kitty litter and sprinkle it on the spill. I also grind it into the spill with an old pair of shoes. Next day sweep it up and pitch.
