Need a little bit of help.....
#1If some of you know my clutch has been giving me trouble. Installed a SS clutch line(SPL) today,after installing I could not build any pressure.(When driving back from vero I had no clutch) Removed my master cylinder and put my finger over the outlet and pushed on the stick.IT didnt' seem like it wa leaking at all.So figured it was something else(slave). Re-installed it but still couldn't build pressure. However form being inside the car pushing the pedal back in forth i could air being either pushed or sucked.so this is a bad master correct?Didn't do it everytime but did it about 60% of the time when coming back up to the top. Any ideas. I was having fluid come out the bleeder valve and was pure fluid...#2Trying to put in new injectors(tomei 555) can't get them out of the rail or my stockers otu of the rail. I've sprayed them so i can turn them now.But how do I get them out.Was told there is a tool that goes into the 2 side holes at the top of the injector so they don't get damaged.Autozone says they usually come out by hand...used visegrips on my stocker and it didn't get me anywhere but scarred it up. Any tips?#3 Trying to install an autometer electric oil gauge.Removed my stock oil pressure sensor(from IAP's oil T) I can not get the autometer to screw into the T. I had an adapter to adapt it to a larger hole and both my stock sensor and autometer screw into it so I'm confused. Do I need an adpater or are the threads the same, and I'm just not at the right angle?Thanx guys....

The stock oil pressure sending unit is BSPT. You'll need another adapter like you recieved to adapt the T to the block.
For the injectors, use a flat-edge screwdriver to pry the injectors out.
After you remove the cap, put the two screws back in the holes and screw them all the way in. Then use the screw as a leverage point with the flat-edge. Using both of them with two flat-edge screwdrivers is the way to go. More of an even lift. Contine to twist the injector between prying.
Sometimes you have to do a lot of bleeding to get the clutch to work right. I bled the hell out of mine. Also, speedbleeders kick ***. If you don't use speedbleeder, fill a container with fresh fluid and run a hose from the bleeder nipple to the container full of fresh fluid. That will keep air from entering the system while bleeding. Makes bleeding a lil easier too.

Re: (Florida240sx)
on the injectors..my buddy took my SR 370's out the rail for me..all he did was get like a block of wood and tapped on the head of the injector (smaller end)...might help to have someone twisting and pulling at same time, and of course, secure the rail so it doesnt move.I tried installing my oil sending unit too, the threads were off..get the bspt adapter. i got the JGS oil line kit and it has it all, except the restrictor. i got my restrictor from WeFilterIt.com And for the clutch, i hate working on the hydraulics...it seems to never be right

no.... I bled my entire system switching to ATE super blue in about 20minutes...
Autometer is NPT.
Look on http://www.mcmaster.com for 1/8"BSPT x 1/8" NPT and whatever male/female combination you need. From my expirience, do not use brass fittings as the weight of the Autometer pressure sending unit causes them to break over time. I've broken two off so far while driving and both of them broke off in the head. Scary seeing oil pressure not rising....
Don't use a restrictor with -3an line.
