'01 EX Coupe, 4 cylinder
Bought this car earlier this year. Has been sitting in my yard about 6 months. Started. moved around a few times.
The last time I started it, a few weeks ago, when I lifted off the clutch pedal, it stayed at the floor. Gave it a few pumps and it came up fine. I figured, either the master or slave is sticking. I should bleed it.
A few days ago, I hop in to start it. I attempt to push the clutch pedal, but am met with a great deal of resistance. I had to push with most of my 250 lbs (really need to get on the bike more) to actuate the switch to allow me to start it. And after starting it, I can move it in and out of gear without touching the clutch.
So either my slave is froze in the disengaged position, or my clutch is screwed.
I assume that I should be able to crack the bleeder at the slave to at least get back clutch pedal movement.
I am hoping it is just a frozen slave. Looks very easy to replace. The master looks like a PITA to change.
