I just got a 1998 eclipse had to have it towed home it starts right up no problem but when it is running you cant get it to go in gear when it is off it will go in ever gear just fine any ideas

could it bee the clutch master silinder or slave silinder could it bee the clutch master silinder or slave silinder

Is there resistance on the clutch pedal when you push it down? If so, the slave and master should be good. Can you see the slave cylinder push the fork when using the clutch pedal? If the fork has a good travel, the issue will be internal Is there resistance on the clutch pedal when you push it down? If so, the slave and master should be good.

the clutch pedal has no pressure on it it goes straight to the floor I had my daughter pushing up and down on the clutch and I couldn't see nothing on the slave sylinder move how hard is that to see should it be simple to see the slave move when pushing down on the clutch the clutch pedal has no pressure on it it goes straight to the floor I had my daughter pushing up and down on the clutch and I couldn't see nothing on the slave sylinder move how hard is that to see should it be simple to see the slave move when pushing down on the clutch

You should have no problem seeing the slave cylinder move. If no resistance/pressure on the clutch pedal, possible low fluid or air in the system. Check the master cylinder for proper fluid level and add as required. If fluid level ok, there should be a bleed screw on the slave cylinder. Pump the clutch pedal several times and hold it down. Open the bleed screw and see if air or fluid comes out. If air comes out or just dribbles of fluid, you will need to continue this process until a stady stream of fluid is present. Make sure you close the bleed screw before the pedal is returned to the top position. If this procedure doesn't help, the clutch master cylinder may be bad You should have no problem seeing the slave cylinder move.

ok I checked the fluid and added some I did as you d said and I bleed it I was doing that for an hour but I could only get a little fluid to come out still no presher on the pedal could this still be the master or slave cylinder thanks for all the help ok I checked the fluid and added some I did as you d said and I bleed it I was doing that for an hour but I could only get a little fluid to come out still no presher on the pedal could this still be the master or slave cylinder thanks for all the help

Sorry for the timely reply Richard. Without actually being there, my thoughts would be toward the master cylinder Sorry for the timely reply Richard. Without actually being there, my thoughts would be toward the master cylinder
