Yes, the bleeder is shut all the way, just seemed strange to me that that would be moving around. The clutch noise, can't tell you how long but it's always made noise I believe. It will not go into gear, and if you put it in gear and try to start it it jumps, when I'm, pushing down on the pedal it's not disengaging.

What I said in one of my earlier posts was is it possible the pressure plate collapsed. I've talked to three mechanics on this and their response was it would be unlikely.

Anyway, you've tried everything else, give the master a go. Do be aware that there is another one of those funky O-rings on the master cylinder.

Hi Mark

How many miles did you get out of your clutch before you had to replace it ?
