help clutch trans problems

[Ferrarikillin101]

k i have a 2001 gmc sonoma with 2.2. my clutch just went out so i ordered Zoom Performance Products 30017 clutch from summit. it came in i installed in. i didnt know about the bleeding the slave cyender so i didnt. it has a brand new throw out bearin that came with the kit. so i was takin it very easy on the new clutch 86 miles into the new clutch. it just started not workin it felt like the tranny fell so i check and it was still there. so i thought the hydralic line came off it didnt. so the engine wouldnt start also so i thought maybe the fly wheel was loose its not. starter turns and everything. the truck just wont start in neutral. if u put it in first and start it the car moves a little forward as long as u hold the key in. so if anyone can help me with any pointers please. my cousin thinks it the throw out bearing thanks for the help

bleed the clutch. on my 96 it is a 13mm nut i believe on the left side of the tranny by the hydrulic line. If that does not work you may have a leak somewhere else. open it push in clutch close it repeat until you get peddle feel again.

[Ferrarikillin101]

yep i bled it all my clutch feel is back. everyone i ask here is sayin the throwout bearin so thats next what i check out. while i wait for the lines and everything to dry. than im going to check for a leak

[tmaxxs10]

hope you dont have any leaks. good luck

[Bobthebiker]

did you put a new slave in when you did the clutch? if no, do that as well. its standard procedure. I like making a habit of doing throwout and pilot bearing, slave, and clutch at once. its in the same area, so you may as well.

[Ferrarikillin101]

no ser i did not replace the slave. today im goin to hop under there see if the throw out is relesin. if it is were going to check the ignition coils to see if there givin spark. i really dont want to have to take the trans out again. but its lookin like i have to so i guess i will do that today also. thanks for all the help i will keep this up todate

[Ferrarikillin101]

k i got under there and the throw out is releasin. but my master cyender is leakin i found i lost all my pedal the next mornin so we raplaced that today. but we also check the sensor on it and that maybe bad to

If your master is leaking that's a good indication your slave is not too far behind I agree with Bobthebiker sop is to change the slave when you're in there. Most hyd clutches I have done need a master in a month or two.

k let me let yall in on what im doin now. k when u start the truck the starter spins the flywheel but it dosnt spin the crank pully so nothing connected to the belt spins. the throw out bearing does move. we tryed push startin it today and it didnt do anything. it sort of felt like the splines are striped. has anyone heard of anything like this the splines stripin. i can shift like normal into each of my gears 1,2,3,4,5,R. tomarrow im going to drop tranny and check the bearing between my flywheel and the crank. i will replace the slave once i get it out. any more tips.

[Bobthebiker]

it sounds like you have a flywheel with some missing teeth most likely. or rather a LOT of missing teeth on the outside for the starter to engage on.

[Ferrarikillin101]

na flywheel and starter are in good condition

[Ferrarikillin101]

k i went to just answer. com. explaned what happend within 3 hours he had a idea the starter ring gear.there is two pieces to the flywheel. didnt even know this google it thow. im going to replace it tomarrow

[Ferrarikillin101]

ahhhh dear god. the bolts broke that held the flywheel to the engine

[Bobthebiker]

You're gonna have to pull the motor and take that shit to a professional machine shop, OR buy a new crank. how the HELL do the flywheel bolts manage to break? I cant even imagine this. they're pretty thick and strong bolts.

[Ferrarikillin101]

ya were trying to figure this out also. well if i pull the crank im rebuildin my 2.2. stroked and everything
