terrygw63 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Outside my realm dealing with clutch and transmissions. Solved the problem of not getting fuel to the carb and new problem is that it will only crank in neutral. Won’t shift into gear with the clutch pedal on the floor. New clutch master cylinder and full of fluid. Have tried bleeding the skate cylinder a few times but still nothing. Fluid is running good when I open the bleeder valve on the slave cylinder. Any help will be tremendously appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Did or have you replaced the center bearing that sits in the middle of the fly wheel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 does it shift into gears with the engine off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norhing like that has been done. Been sitting up for a little while but was working then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Cranking" is when the starter motor is engaged and turning the engine over before it fires. A running engine is not "cranking." It sounds like your clutch is not releasing completely. Please describe exactly how you bled the clutch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiser54 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Does the clutch pedal have little to no resistance to foot pressure? If so, try this: Pump the pedal 40 to 50 times and then just walk away for about 20 minutes. see if that got some stubborn air out of the system.

terrygw63 Posted April 2, 2019 Author Share Posted April 2, 2019 Thanks Cruiser. I’ll give that a try that’s not anything I have tried yet. But yeah it feels like there’s no resistance at all when depressing the clutch pedal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrygw63 Posted April 2, 2019 Author Share Posted April 2, 2019 Eagle as mentioned in my original post clutch and transmissions I have always left to the professionals. And when my dad bought this Jeep years and years ago I had to pull the trans and have it gone through. So I followed someone’s advice on the forum about vlresi g the clutch and opened the bleeder on the slave cylinder and depressed the clutch pedal and closed the bleeder. Doing this several times and I was getting good flow of fluid out the bleeder. This is a rough truck. My dad and I had gotten it for a project before he passed away and we ran it for a few years just want to get it back in the road and work some issues out to see how much I want to put into it. I’m no mechanical technician but can do a lot. My part is going to be what it looks like in the end. I’ve been a collision technician for for about 40 years.
