Can't figure out where this hose goes...

[mother_russia]

So the 5 speed swap is complete on my car, but I can't figure out where this last hose goes into! It's connected to the little, nipple as they call it, connected on the side of the brake reservoir, which I believe should be going to the master clutch? I got the hose came undone a month or so ago, and I don't remember where it came from....

Here's a picture. It's the green outlined one.

I dont recognize the fitting on the end but the clutch master is definitely fed by brake fluid reservoir

Almost looks like a booster line fitting on it. You sure its the right line?

The fitting is the small nipple on top of the clutch master cylinder. Should just pop back on to the top of it

The fitting on the end piece was connected to another hose, I believe. I had two short hoses so I just put them together. I just can't find the other hose that this one connected to.

Doesn't that go to the clutch slave cylinder on trans

[SpecM]

It doesn't got to another line or to the slave, its connected to the clutch master. I did a five-speed swap about two years ago, I looked at those parts a lot

^ Yes.

It is the feed for the clutch master cylinder. It comes off the brake res halfway up the side so that if you get a leak in the clutch system it doesn't drain the whole res leaving you with no brakes.

It is not supposed to be a 2 piece hose, one end goes on the M/C (inside the car) and the other on the res.

Hose goes into the car and connects to the clutch master cylinder, also appears it has a nipple in it? That fits into the rubber grommet on the master cylinder.

So I figured it out. The end piece, the plastic one you guys were wondering about, was put on the wrong way. Here is what it looks like


The right half goes into the clutch master cylinder, and the left half goes into the hose that connects into the nipple of the brake reservoir.

I just ran into a problem though. I found a pretty cool way to bleed the system, but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Here is how I'm trying to do it.

As I connect the hose from the oil can to the bleeder screw on the slave cylinder, I start pumping but there is no air bubbles coming out of the brake reservoir at all! There's actually nothing coming out. What might I be doing wrong?

Not to be a dick, but you opened the bleeder on the slave right? If so, it should be a straight shot to the master cylinder.

Also, I believe the clutch (and brake) master cylinders are self bleeding. I don't know for sure, but you may not see air bubbles ever.

[FLG]

Brakes are not self bleeding. They need to be bled.

Make sure your opening up the bleeder valve enough.
