1999 Nissan Frontier clutch pedal stays on floor Sign In

1999 Nissan Frontier 4X4 3.3 v6. 190,000 miles
I recently had valve cover gaskets replaced and shortly thereafter, the clutch
stayed on the floor when depressed. Suspect it needs to be bled; any ideas on best way to do the bleeding.

It's not just bleeding. You have a bad master or slave most likely. Just make sure it didn't break a fork or pressure plate.

Thanks for the comments and advice. I had thought that perhaps in replacing the valve cover gaskets, the clutch hydraulics may have been compromised.

But you are most likely right. I had the master and slave replaced at 116000 miles
and this failure may be usual wear and tear
