Bleeding Clutch

[krisco]

So, I changed the clutch and the only thing left is this. I installed a new clutch slave cylinder, so I'm close to positive thats not the problem. When I try to bleed the clutch, the only thing coming out is air (and I've pumped the clutch pedal close to 1000 times now). Chiltons says if that doesnt work, uninstall the slave, and depress the pushrod until it hits its internal stop, reinstall and repeat normal bleed. When I did this, brake fluid came out of the bleed screw, so I know the new slave has at least some fluid in it. Oh yeah, the brake fluid reservoir is full. Is the problem:
a. keep on trying to bleed, just a lot of air in the line
b. master cylinder, o-rings broken?
c. fluid line
d. ?

And I have searched for this topic.
Thanks,
Kris

my guess is the O rings. pedal sticking to the floor rite? btw, i bled from the slave and both front brakes. since they share the same resovoir

Most likely the clutch master cylinder is bad, it's a good idea to replace them at the same time anyway.
If you just crack the bleeder open on the slave, gravity won't cause fluid to drip out?
