6600 rpm clutch dump of death Administrator
Dumb question, but what are you doing to bleed the system? The clutch doesn't bleed like brakes (pump and hold, then crack the bleeder).
Its sorta the opposite. Crack Bleeder, depress pedal and hold down, close bleeder, repeat. Pump and hold won't remove air.

Did u check that rubber boot for a hole even pinsize? if thats not it we in the same boat, but i know whats up... its ur slave cylinder leakin... after u bleed it watch were u park and u will see a wet spot on the floor... looks like between ur oil pan and transmission, some may say its ur rear main gasket, buts its ur slave leakin!

Started my clutch swap a week ago. If I only knew before what I know now, could do one in a few hours now with all the short cuts.
When I took it apart the inside of the bellhousing was clean so I did not replace the slave. put it back together and bleed just to get the air from the QD out and my dump *** friend lets the it run dry. that was saturday. Bought the mittyvac helped alittle but still have to pump to get it in gear at a stand still, then its fine until I stop again.
A buddy of mine is coming over with a vacumm deal over to pull vacumm from the bleeder value, which is most likely what the dealer will do. I will let you know if it works.
