Idle issues

Hi. I don't know how to start this, but I am about to travel home to try and fix my 86 rx7. I was having issues with the clutch system and idle. First off the idling; it will not idle AT ALL. If I let it fall below 3800 rpms it dies even when I'm giving it gas. It didn't get this bad until I changed my clutch. Speaking of my clutch, I will bleed it properly and have pressure, but when I drive it, it will loose pressure. I just need to know if anyone has any ideas here. It has a new slave and master cylinder soon with the hose that connects them. Thank you for up help in advanced.

I would check your vacuum connections. As far as the clutch losing pressure - you still have air in your system and over time it travels back up the system. You must bleed all the air out. Bleeding the system can be a pain in the ***. If you hook up a clear hose to the nipple you will see the bubbles coming through. Keep bleeding until you see no bubbles coming out of the hose.
