if you're not changing the master cylinder, all you'll have to do it pump the pedal a few times with the reservoir cap off.

Kool so i tried bleeding and nothing happend the pedel still stayed down to the floor. Could i have installed it all fucked up or wat cuz i cant even get the tranny into gear. i tried at one point and just heard grinding. So should i just rent a vac and try that or is my problem alot serious.

Yah grinding has nothing to do with bleeding or might I say bleeding wont stop any kind of grinding noise.

I suggest using a mighty-vac to bleed the system to insure that all is well. In fact it isn't a bad idea to flush and refill the system when installing a new clutch. Remember, hydraulic fluid, like any fluid, needs to be replaced over time.

Having air in the system, or a slave that has not adjusted to the height of the new clutch can affect release. If the clutch can't release fully, as a result of the compression provided by the bearing, then you can experience grinding. Subsequently, Build, lack of bleeding can lead to a transmission that grinds. Let me know if you guys have any further questions. Thanks,
