Default Tick speed bleeder.

Quick question, with the speed bleeder, new slave and Tick Master should the clutch pedal stuck to the floor with the bleeder cracked open?

I crack it about 1/4 turn push down the clutch and it returns up by its self, fluid is moving out the end.

Is that normal?

The bleeder valve should be closed. If its open and you continue to pump the clutch pedal all you will be doing is introducing air into the system which you should not be doing.

Bleeding the master the pedal stayed down like it should. When I open the line and press the pedal down it wants to come up immediately when hooked up to the slave. I just dont know if it is supposed to do that.

This is from the tick website,

SPEEDbleeder end - allowing you to simply crack it open one time and close it once the air is out of the system, instead of having to open and close the bleeder with every pump of the pedal.

I have it and it has never worked like that for me, know it 'supposed' to, but it didn't. Still the remote line makes bleeding easier. You are going to need a buddy or a mighty vac vacuum pump to bleed that circuit.
