air in clutch line

[Meatyshells]

i keep getting air tin the clutch line some how. I will bleed the clutch out. Drive around the block and then the pedal will get all squishy again. Will rebleed the clutch to find more air in the line. What would cause air to keep getting in the clutch line?

Re: air in clutch line

Not to insult you in any way but are you doing the bleeding yourself or is someone pumping the clutch then holding it. When I had mine done the mechanic had me pump the clutch while he bleed it underneath. I took it for a spin and clutch still had air in the line. We did this about 3 times until it finally got all of it out. The GM mechanic said these are a b!TCH to bleed out. Off the subjcet did you use the spec TOB or a GM one?

You probably have a hole in the hydraulic line somewhere.

After I replaced all my hydraulics, i bled and bled and bled and couldnt get a stiff pedal, so i paid $20.00 for a shop to hook a power bleeder to it and got it done right away.

well first i did it with me and my dad, he pumped the clutch while i did the bleeder valve. Clutch pedal felt good, then took it around the block and it didnt help at all.
Then i got one of those vacum power bleeders, tried that out also, didnt help.
So i ordered a new master cylinder, that should be here tomorrow. Hopfully that will work
and i used the gm one, not sure what the TOB one is

Re: air in clutch line

well i thought it was the master cylinder, i was wrong.
I have the trans out now and cant seem to find what the problem is. Everything looks fine
