Okay guys. I'm doing a auto to manual swap and I'm already basically finished but I went ahead and started bleeding my brakes and I got a aftermarket single brake fuild Reservoir for the for the clutch... the master in the tr6060 was good when we took it out of the other car. Now when I try to prime it it's leaking. Do these things just go out just like that with no warning...

Leaking from where? Did you tear an o-ring accidentally? Where was the part(s) sourced from? The unit on the trans is actually a slave...how are you bleeding the system?

good luck

Peace

Me and a buddy are swapping. Because he wants automatic and I want manual. I went to bleed the system from the bleeder port on the save cylinder... I barely opened it to start putting fluid through it. Once I saw all the air bubbles go away I close the system. Then I tried pumping to get the clutch hard. And fluid was just gushing out from the Slave cylinder.. anyway the slave cylinder wasn't leaking in his car. And we didn't take it off or anything. I already ordered another slave so I guess I just have to wait it just pissed me off because I want to finish everything today

don't use the bleeder to bleed lol. It doesn't really work.

This is the best and quickest way to get it done. I tried to use the bleeder screw and it was a disaster, though it sealed back up when I tighted it. I made this quick video
