SOURCE: need to know how to bleed it

There would be a bleed nipple on it. It would be located near the bellhousing.
Open nipple a little let fluod seep out until no bubbles in it. Make sure you top the fluid up and dont let it empty.

SOURCE: i cant get pressure to my clutch pedal in my 1995

You cannot bleed these clutch hydraulics. They are meant to be a pre-bled sealed unit that you buy. You should never replace just the slave or the master. Buy them both and replace them as one unit which is already bled from the factory. Otherwise you will experience what you are describing.

Make sure you install the slave cylinder (into the transmission hole) first and then the master cylinder (pedal side) next and do not hook up the pedal until everything is installed.

If you take the slave out with the pedal attached it will extend the rod and ruin the hydraulics rendering them useless.

SOURCE: trouble bleeding the clutch

all clutch slave cylinders have a bleed screw,one pipe in,the other hole is the bleed screw hole,should be tapered at the bottom,for the screw to deal against,also sits above the pipe,to let the air out

Replacing the clutch on a 1998 Saturn SL1 we encountered a problem after installation, The clutch would not disengage. The hydraulic clutch system and slave cylinder seemed to be working fine, we even...

It is very difficult for you to disengage the clutch by hand or with any leverage you can get outside the transmission. There is over 200 lbs of force clamping on the clutch disc.

If you replaced the clutch and took the slave cylinder out of the transmission without putting a brick under the clutch pedal or disconnecting the pivot arm from the pedal then you ruined the hydraulics. Buy a new PRE-BLED system from a local auto store. Generally this is the problem.

Either that or the clutch fork is bent or you installed the throwout bearing backwards (or simply fell off the fork which is not all that uncommon).

How do i get the slave cylinder out of the trans on a 95 saturn sc1

Unbolt the the two nuts that hold it onto the transmission. Then grab the slave cylinder and turn it counter clockwise and it should pop out. That is correct because holding it in the hole and turning it clockwise seats it back into the transmission.

Remember to remove the connection between the clutch pedal and the master cylinder or put a brick or something to hold the clutch pedal up or else removing the slave cylinder without the above note will ruin the hydraulics and allow air to get into this airless system.

There is a rod from my clutch on my 2002 saturn SL1 hanging loose, now what?

Hi:
Without seeing your car, the most likely problem is that either your pressure plate has failed, or your clutch slave cylinder has failed.
If it is the pressure plate, your transmission needs removed to fix that. and you should install a new clutch disk as well, If it is the slave cylinder, what should have had the rod attached to, it can be swapped or repaired , no transmission removal needed

I would have the cylinder replaced with one that has a key with it instead of having them match the cylinder to a key. I think it would create less places for error.

Trouble engaging clutch

Check the clutch slave cyliner for leakage. Is the resivoir full? It may be either your clutch master or clutch slave cylinders. The car is kinda new to need a release bearing or clutch disc. Check your hydraulic system (master and slave).

93 saturn clutch

The clutch in your car is operated by a hydraulic system, from what you have posted it sounds like the master or slave clutch hydraulic cylinder have failed, this causes either a leak of fluid and or air in the system, this causes your symptom, these cylinders are sold separately but from past experience it is unwise to replace just one, as the other usually fails shortly after the repair is done.

If you find this info useful please give a HELPFUL or FIXYA! rating. Thanks
