SOURCE: clutch pedal stays 2 the floor on a hydralic

Did you bleed the system? When you replace the the master and/or slave cylinder you have to bleed the system just as you would with brakes. There is a bleed screw on the slave cylinder. Open the bleed screw, have a helper depress and hold the clutch pedal down.Tighten the bleed screw, then release clutch. Repeat this procedure until you have removed all air from the system and the clutch pedal is firm. Keep an eye on the fluid level to avoid sucking air into the system. If you have done this, remember there is a possibility that the master or slave cylinder is defective.

SOURCE: Clutch pedal does not disengage clutch

If the car hasn't been driven for a while it could be corrosion on the fork but I think that is unlikely. I think you are right about the release bearing being jammed in the spring. If the truck has quite high mileage, it probably means a clutch job.

SOURCE: why wont my clutch disengage? its hard to shift gears

It sounds like you got air in the lines after changing the stuff. you will need to bleed it like you do the brakes. it may take two people to to do tis. one to pump the clutch while the other works the fitting to let the air out. I hope this helps, and please be kind with a thumbs up. I need to good marks. Raz

How do I check the oil level in slave cylinder for the clutch on 2006 chevy cobalt
First off, clutch hydraulics use ONLY dot 3/4 brake fluid, if you used any kind of petroleum product you have ruined the clutch master cylinder and clutch slave/actuator(GM's term)cylinder. The level is on the side of the reservoir. If you had to add fluid, you have a leak in the system, probably the slave cylinder first. A master cylinder leak would have fluid on the inside of the firewall, where the master cylinder is mounted(leaking at the back). You bleed clutch hydraulics as you would with brakes.

Only air coming out when bleeding a 2006 chevrolet cobalt ls.
Need to know what was done to need to bleed the brakes. Easiest way to bleed a brake system is the gravity bleed. Crack open all 4 bleeder screws a little, open your cap on the master cylinder, and wait. Make sure to keep plenty fluid in the master cylinder while doing this. After about 30 min or so you should have pure brake fluid coming out of all 4 bleeder screws. If you have one that does not have fluid coming out, tighten the others and open the one up more until fluid comes out. After all four wheels have fluid it is still a good idea to have a buddy help you bleed them once the old fashion way by pumping up the brakes, hold the pedal and crack open each beeder one at a time.

Just because the master is new does not mean it isn't faulty. If you are certain you have bleed all the air from the system, I suspect you got a bad master.

Clutch issues
This is a hydraulic clutch, meaning you push fluid to make the clutch move just like the brakes.
I would check the clutch master cylinder first to see if it is full of fluid.
The master or slave cylinder could have failed, among other things.
Grinding gears means the clutch disk is not moving.

I went to start my car today and pushed the clutch in and it went straight to the floor on my 06 chevy cobalt ls. Can you help?
Check the fluid for the clutch. It has a small master cylinder next to the brake master cylinder. It should use brake fluid. If it is low, top it off. If it goes low again, you'll need to investigate where it's leaking from. You could have a leaking master or slave cylinder.

Slave cylinder is what compresses the clutch, the black plastic piece your talking about should pass throughout the firewall and actuate the clutch master cylinder.

2007 chevy cobalt ss need help
Sounds like you are not getting the full throw of the slave cylinder. If you do not disengage the clutch completely it will shift hard, and sometimes you have to double clutch like you would an old truck. Have whoever put in your clutch bleed the clutch system again.

Hope this helps.

Loss of clutch
Call the Fiat dealer and get the parts department. Tell them whats happening and ask if they offer a stronger plunger. If they dont, call a high performance auto parts store and ask if they have a racing clutch master cylinder. If they do, go look at it and see if its the same plastic plunger. It should be a heavy duty plunger.
