How to bleed a clutch on mitsubisi eclipse 2001

how much was taken off flywheel ? was there a shim between crank and flywheel ? did you make sure spline count on clutch plate matched spline count and diameter on input shaft to transmission

I suspect that the clutch plate is in back to front and the centre hub section is hitting on the flywheel bolts. check and bleed the slave cylinder first to ensure that there is no problem there. IT may be that you have to remove the box again and turn the clutch plate around

filling the reservoir is good
not bleeding the air out of the system is bad and will be your problem
get a friend to help with the bleeding process or get a mobile mechanic in to do the job

cluch master cyclinder is shot unless the slave cyclinder is out look for fluid on firewall by master cyclinder if dry check by clutch under car plus slave cyclinder needs to be bleed when new fluid is put in

you need to bleed your clutch. make sure the cap is on all the way, then have someone press the pedal to floor, open the bleed valve to let air escape and close it back. repeat it 3 or 4 times and it should take of your problem.

drop the tranny and it will be right there

Look under your hood for a Clutch master cylinder. It will look like a brake resevoir, but smaller, and also has brake fluid in it. This is what adjusts your clutch as it wears. If you have one, there is no adjustment. You can bleed these like brakes, at the slave cylinder located near the clutch bell housing area, but usually a bad pedal is from the clutch being worn out.

sounds like you have not bleed all the air out of the system, bleed it again using a Mityvac brand bleeding tool.

Here it is

had the same problem with my 03 eclipse. check your cigarette lighter fuse. powered on the same circuit. that was my issue
