I'd recommend you re-read my last post. Sounds like you are not sure what is going on, or how to diagnose it.

Now you might just need to drop the tranny again. Just throwing new parts at it may or may not solve the problem. Good luck!

Not really. I've been doing it myself for over 10 years wink I never need to depress the slave to get all the air out either.

I use a hose with a 1 way check valve at the end. You don't need to crack the bleeder on the slave all the way open either. Just loosen it a touch so that fluid comes out the hose and not from the threads.

That's cool, yeah that's what we did when we were doing it two person, just enough for fluid to come out the bleeder.

You can also get a bleed kit that consists of a cup/lid with a hose and various bleeder sized ends. Hang it off the open bleeder and you're on your own. I think mine was from Princess Auto.

Or you can use one of these:

You can use them on anything that uses a bleeder, it doesn't have to be brakes, the bleeders can't tell the difference. smile I've been using these on my own cars for ages now.

Ok so bringing this back from the dead, I took the tranny off, shimmed the pivot ball, replaced the master, rebuilt the slave and I have clutch movement but its very low engagment point, I have a extended rod but would like some other ideas before I try that, I will be coming home at the start of april for 2 weeks and really want to drive it.

A push rod adjust could help. But how USED is the clutch. Wear on PP fingers?

The clutch was low milage and looked in very good condition, if the flywheel was shaved too much could that be the issue?

Try adjusting the the push rod first then see how she feels. The only slaves i know of that you have to push back to bleed are the ones that have no bleeder screw.

Then it really has to be a bleeding issue.
