Since there is very little fluid movement when you press in on the master cylinder and the fluid travels down, it can be very annoying to try to get a clutch system to bleed. The best luck I have ever had was to push in the clutch pedal with my right leg until it got tired and then switch to my left. When it was tired i'd switch back to my right. If you press the pedal all the way down about 100 times, it usually has enough pressure to operate.

have you check the slave cylinder to see if its moving when someone puts there foot on the clutch.
And check the adjustment on the master cylinder.

SOURCE: Bleeding clutch slave cylinder

if you loosten the slave bleeder screw and push in the clutch pedal fluid should come out if not make sure someone holds down the pedal and tighten the screw then pump the clutch a few times and hold the pedal and open the screw if no fluid repeat a couple of times if still no fluid you need either a new master cylinder or just rebuild it( normally cheaper) and if you rebuild it make sure you flush all the lines of debris

SOURCE: Bleeding clutch slave cylinder

i think youre doing the right thing. they are very stubborn to bleed because the hyd. line goes up high across back of engine before droppiing back down to slave cyl., trapping air. could try to gravity bleed by opening bleeder at slave, cap off of master cyl, full with fluid then it may start to come out after a bit. then try your process again. or can try to bleed at connections further up the line, working your way back to bleeder. hope this helps. be patient.

SOURCE: clutch pedal stays 2 the floor on a hydralic

Did you bleed the system? When you replace the the master and/or slave cylinder you have to bleed the system just as you would with brakes. There is a bleed screw on the slave cylinder. Open the bleed screw, have a helper depress and hold the clutch pedal down.Tighten the bleed screw, then release clutch. Repeat this procedure until you have removed all air from the system and the clutch pedal is firm. Keep an eye on the fluid level to avoid sucking air into the system. If you have done this, remember there is a possibility that the master or slave cylinder is defective.

What is the simplest way to bleed a clutch master cylinder after changing the rubbers on Mazda T4100 truck? I'm struggling to bleed and build pressure.

Just take the cap off the master cylinder, open the bleeder on the slave cylinder, an let it bleed a few seconds. Close the bleeder and refill the master cylinder. put the cap back on then just use the clutch a lot while sitting. The unit WILL reset itself and work properly. It may be low to the floor for a bit, but will work, but it will finally bleed all air back to the Master cylinder. These hydraulic clutch units can be a pain to deal with at times, but they work well after it's scared you a few times. My old Toyota ruck has done this to me.

2006 Toyota hiace diesel van clutch slipping. Are brake and clutch fluid the same? Cheers

Yes they are the same . Check that the master cylinder is operational as a slipping clutch can be a blocked compensating port not allowing the fluid to drain back to the reservoir and holding the pressure on the clutch release.

97 jeep Cherokee clutch will not depress to start the engine

Now you need to bleed the clutch at the clutch slave cylinder down on the transmission to restore the clutch.
Put a wrench on the bleed valve and open it, then lightly close it. Now have someone pump the clutch a couple of times to build pressure. Then while the clutch pedal is slowly pressed down open the bleed valve, then close valve as pedal gets to floor. Repeat this bleed process until a steady stream of brake fluid comes out the bleed valve. Then you should have a good clutch again.

Have 90 toyota 4runner just replaced slave cylinder plenty of fluid but the clutch pedal just flops around no resistence either way. any answers?

Hello, try opening the bleeder valve on the slave cylinder, leave it open, pull the pedal up and then pump the pedal down and pull it up repeatedly until you feel some pressure, close the valve and try bleeding the rest of the air out in the normal manner.

I have a 89 chevy silverado, my slave cylinder broke off the trans and I have repaired that but now it wont pump up or operate the clutch any clues as to whats wrong??? HELP

You have to bleed the slave like you do the brakes on your truck.
Have a friend help ... pumping the clutch until some pressure builds... then holding the clutch peddle down until you have released the pressure by opening the bleeder valve on the slave cylinder...
repeate until there is sufficient clutching action to satisfy your needs.
