So it was the master cylinder. The new one's storke was too short so i had to swap some parts from the old to the new but i got it to work. The 280 is finally eating up the pavement again. Now I just have to address: the oil burning, the exhaust leak, the radio not working, the doors not locking, and the sluggish ignition.

Thanks for the reply. I did have someone in the car to pump the clutch and there didn't seem to be any air in the system. When he pumped to build up pressure though the fluid just oozed out rather than squirting which makes me think the fluid is bypassing the seal in the master cylinder and not coming down the line to the slave. I like the idea about the tube though, cause then it turns it into kind of a closed system and you can pump and bleed at the same time. Any other thoughts would be appreciated otherwise I'll let you all know tomorrow if it worked.

Hi all, I just got a 76 280Z that's been sitting awhile and the clutch goes right to the floor. I tried bleeding to no avail and then changed the slave cylinder again with no improvement. I am going to be changing the master tonight and hopefully that's it, but I'm wondering if I am missing something I should have checked before throwing the new parts at it. There aren't any leaks, and I topped of the fluid. Any Ideas? Thanks!
