can someone explain this process of bleeding the clutch better?
can someone explain this process of bleeding the clutch better? nbolt the slave cylinder from the bellhousing. Remove the reservoir cap (don't get any dirt in there). Then you hold the slave cylinder upside down (rod facing toward ground), and give it short pumps. It should get harder the longer you do it.
You can either do that laying on the ground, or move the slave cylinder up into the engine bay so you can watch the reservoir while you pump the slave. Either way, make sure the slave is lower than the MC. Once air bubbles stop coming up through the reservoir tube, it's bled
Isn't the slave on the inside of the bell housing?

If you have the trans out, why not buy a new slave? also buy the bleeder nipple extension for the T56, bleed once it's all back together, ie box etc back in car.
While it's all out check or get someone in the know to check your clutch, much easier to replace while it's out now than having to go through it all again a few miles later

Got me!!! while you are bleeding the system are you continually getting air out or does it stop and just fluid comes out? You either have something thats loose allowing air to suck in or you're doing something wrong, suggest you get mechanical help form someone near you that can look over your car
