Clutch Problem - Looking for Advice
Hi All - Long time lurker with a few posts.
I'm having a problem with the hydraulic clutch on my '96 ZX11. The symptom includes an inconsistent feel on the lever as I shift through the gears. Most times I get a full, solid pull on the lever, but other times the lever requires an additional 1/4" or 1/2" pull before the clutch disengages. This inconsistency is amazingly annoying.
Here's what I've done so far.
* Replaced the clutch fluid and have probably bled the system 20 times. I'm confident I don't have any bubbles in the line.
* Rebuilt the master cylinder
* Replaced/Rebuilt the slave cylinder (bought a used one and put in new parts).
* Removed the clutch cover to see if anything obvious was broken at the end of the push rod. Nothing worth noting.
My gut on this is that the master is somehow letting fluid back into the reservoir at times before sending fluid down the line.
I'm very frustrated and hope you guys have some advice.
