No clutch pedal on my 66 C60 #1142863 01/04/2016 3:17 AM

rustynutsnbolts New Guy R Joined: Oct 2015 Posts: 7 Missouri	So I parked my 66 C60 about 2 months ago for some motor work. Completed the motor work today and hopped in to take it for a spin and the clutch pedal went all the way to the floor and didn't return. Checked the fluid in the master and it was low so topped it off. Still no pedal. Nothing is moving at the slave. Any tips thoughts comments or help will be appreciated.

Since you are in the rust belt, may as well replace all rubber parts, clean w/ alcohol, not spirits, gas or diesel. Ed Last edited by EdPruss; 01/04/2016 3:42 AM.

That might get it operating until it leaks enough out again. •1951 GMC 250 in the Project Journals •1948 Chevrolet 6400 - Detroit Diesel 4-53T - Roadranger 10 speed overdrive - 4 wheel disc brakes •1952 Chevrolet 3800 pickup ---All pictures--- "First, get a clear notion of what you desire to accomplish, and then in all probability you will succeed in doing it..." -Henry Maudslay-

I used a bicycle pump for pressure. It is almost impossible to bleed a hydraulic clutch without pressure
