Default Someone please help

I recently replaced my clutch master cylinder in my 94 accord and now it wont start at all. Not sure if it needs adjusting at th pushrod or maybe the interlock switch but its as if the clutch isnt engaged. Does anyone have anything for me i would greatly appreciate it. Thanks stephen.

If the starter doesn't even try to spin the engine, then the problem is not the master or hydraulic system. The clutch interlock switch sounds like a good candidate.

There can be 2 switches up near the hinge of the clutch pedal. One is for the cruise-control (if your car has it?) & that one has 3 wires. You're looking for the switch with 2 wires. Unplug that & jumper the wires with a paperclip. If that suddenly allows it to start normally, then it's the switch.

Otherwise, look for problems with the battery cables, or ignition switch or something else. Let us know if jumpering the switch works.

So now you can start the engine??

Then the remaining problem is your clutch is slipping. That's gotta be a worn-out clutch disk so you have to replace it.
