no, he means what he said. For whatever ends the factory clutch hydraulics on the 284 equipped cars has a odd accumulator between the master and slave cylinder still to this date not sure WHY as they function fine without it. I assume it was so GM could get the clutch feel to their liking. In my experience once air gets into it its damn near impossible to get it out. And you need a special tool to release that quick connect between the master and slave. I have one, don't ask me what its called or where I even got it cause I don't know. That said. pull the inspection cover over the transmission where the slave cylinder attaches and observe operation. But It could be a bad master, or slave I suppose. stick your head under the dashboard and observe the boot where the master cyl rod comes in and see if its leaking around the boot.

I had a simlar issue with my 282 trans this spring. Was the Master cylinder. I noticed a very small leak in the rubber seal that the shaft runs through Replaced the hydraulic system and all was well. inspect the master cylinder on the inside and see if you spot some fluid

I've seen that happen from overheated/warped clutch discs.

Hello i am possibly swapping a getrag 284 into my car, and curious what people are doing for clutch hydraulics. Rockauto lists both a master and a slave but no inventory. I know the clutches and TOB are different and the push vs pull However the slave cylinder is always pushing out The lever it connects to inside the transmission is just different in their action to engage the clutch I have a known hood setup from a 282. They look almost indentical (minus the vacuum ball in the hydraulic line). has anyone tried 282 parts? If not, anyone have a source for them? thanks!

Great work! I linked that in the comment section on Blacktree's upload for future reference.

Interesting. I have the same gravel sound on my Spec clutch setup.

You can use the 282 master for a 284 transmission. The only difference is the size of the internal piston. I can't remember if its smaller or larger, but it'll only make for a slightly shorter or longer pedal throw.

I have all the other parts x2-3. Just no hydraulics. (Just realizing this). I’ll keep looking to source as well! Hoping they can stil be found
