Clutch SLave Bleeding????

been fighting this thing for the past week and it seems that I am getting nowhere...  can someone shed some light on what I am supposed to be doing to get this thing bled?  I get good fluid with no bubbles but I still have no clutch.

Here is what you do. If the slave and master are in good shape and all you have is air you have to get out here is the WAY I DO IT. Fill up the clutch master then bleed out the slave the best you can. Then remove the slave from the bell housing and let the plunger face down and let the fluid seek its own level. Then push the plunger in against the spring pressure several times while making sure the clutch master is always full. Its like when a doctor removes the air from a needle. He points the needle UP and pushes the air out the tip of the needle. The same thing can be accomplished with the clutch slave. It works every time and i have been doing it for YEARS. Good luck and be patient it takes a couple of pumps to get all the air out. You cant bleed it from the BLEED screw it does not work. Good luck
