Clutch Doesn't build pressure

[FalcoLion]

Did you grind the internal end of the speed bleeder flat before installing it? If not was it difficult to get it to close? I did this and buggered my slave cylinder. If the level of your M/C drops as you pull clutch repeatedly there is a good chance the body of the slave cracked, and that is where your pressure loss may be. There is a little round ball bearing the original bleeder seats against that won't allow the speed bleeder to seat.

 

Compare the internal profile of the stock bleeder with the speed bleeder and you'll see what I mean. Grind the speed bleeder to match and it should work provided the slave isn't cracked.

 

Of course if you have already done this, ignore...

 

cheers

 

 

Dan M and badmotogoozer excellent suggestion. Thank you.

I finally managed to get this sucker bled. WHat a major pain in a*s. In any case I would appreciate if someone can post a picture the brake and clutch lines of V11 Lemans, Nera or Rosso Corso as the connect to master cylinders. I think the bend in the line is different from Ballabio and Copa.
