New clutch master cylinder losing presure

JaZon · 22nd October 2013, 18:44

Hello again, I come home from work today to find my brother fitted my master cylinder for me in my ztt he sais he was board

anyway

the clutch works fine but after depressing it and pressing after about 10 goes it gets stuck half way up. I asked him if he bled it and he sais he did with his mate. Could there be more air in the system or possibly somthing he has not done correctly?

im going to have look over it all tomorrow is there somthing I should look out for

cheers all

Maybe try bleeding it again, if it won't come up, then suspect slave cylinder leak
