no pressure in clutch pedal

[0621]

the first time this happened i dint drive the car for 2 weeks and when i got back there was no pressure in my clutch so the first thing i did was check the fluid it was empty. the first thing that came to my mind was i had a leak but i traced my lines and no leaks. so i added fluid and bleed it and it worked. the second time i was gone for three weeks and same thing i did the same thing but this time it didnt work i got new lines, new master, a new slave, and i got ride of the damper. i just got done bleeding it still nothing. i think its the pressure plate but not sure

Where did you buy your new master and slave?

Weird you cant find a leak at all? I would get under the car and have a buddy pump it over and over and over. It has to be leaking somewhere.

If the master cylinder is shot, you will find the leak inside the car.

Considering you can get a new slave and master cylinder with a small bottle of brake fluid from a parts store for around $40 I would go that route. I am thinking the m/c busted a seal. Feel up around the clutch pedal inside the cabin.

thats not it i checked it today the master works fine i replaced the old one like a week ago and it pumps all the way to the slave but it doesn't move and the slave is brand new. i've bleed it today again for like two hours and still no pressure

Is it a good amount of pressure coming out of the bleeder at the slave? If not, your master cylinder may not be adjusted correctly. You can also try gravity bleeding it, even with that damper removed, getting pressure at the slave on 240's can be a pain. If there is plenty of pressure coming out of the slave cylinder bleeder, but still no clutch pedal, I'd try a new slave cylinder.

sometimes when a master goes bad it leaks out fluid where the pedal piston goes in, you get wet interior carpet. when you replaced your master did you bench bleed it? if not there may still be air trapped in the master. it really sounds like you have a hydraulic problem. i would say the clutch/pressure plate is fine. they would not malfunction one week and work the next, when your clutch is bad its just bad.
