Some Advice

ive noticed thw other day when the car was running and the bonnet was up that i could hear a big air leak. now in the pic ive drawn a yellow line where the air is coming from is this common in 32 gtr and is it expensive to replace at all.

thanks kano

looks like a vacuum leak on the air assisted clutch master - pull the hose off from the plenum and see if its cracked.. if it is, order in a new pipe from nissan or try to find something similar from your local auto parts.

what he said. there are vaccum lines from the plenum to the clutch master and brake master cylinders back there. also some smaller lines under the plenum but start with the master cylinders first

i had a close today and the actual clutch master is cracked itself.

Yeah i've had that happen to me twice.

I had a very heavy twin plate and i think that may have contributed to the cracks. New lighter clutch and haven't had a problem.

You mean the booster don't you???

Yeah my guess would be a hole in the diaphram inside the clutch booster itself. Well thats where the drawing appears to be. Have you noticed any difference in clutch pedal feeling? Is it any heavier? With a vacuum leak you will also get bad/fast idle etc

[jantolis]

Yeah my idle went up to 2200rpm when it was time to get it fixed as i could no longer use the clutch.

[gun32gtr]
