Only if the reservoir was completely empty allowing air to get into the system wil you need to bleed the clutch. If you are not sure if air has entered the system just try putting it into gear (make sure you have an open space around you for you may not be able to take the vehicle out of gear, in this case, shut it off). If air has entered the system the pedal might feel mushy, the gears may grind when shifting, or you may not be able to get the vehicle out of gear easily. If any of these happen, air has got into the system and it needs to be bled.

Is it possible to bleed a prefilled clutch slave cylinder?
Sure, but you also need to get the air out of the lines and the master cylinder. Put the slave on, then bleed the clutch keeping a supply of brake fluid in the reservoir.
How do you bleed the clutch line if there is no bleed screw?
Fill your slave cylinder using a hypodermic syringe (won't take much) and install it. Before you tighten the connection to the slave cylinder, bleed the air out of the line by filling the reservoir and pumping the air out until it runs clear. After it runs clear, tighten the connection to the slave cylinder.
Where and how do you adjust the clutch on a 94 escort?
The clutch can't be adjusted. It is an hydraulic clutch. The clutch pedal sends pressure from the master cylinder to the slave cylinder on the clutch. IF you are having trouble with it the thing to do is bleed the air out at the slave cylinder. Have an assistant pump the clutch and hold it to the floor. Then open the bleed valve on the slave cylinder to let the air out of the system. On the final bleed hold the clutch to the floor and close the bleed valve on the slave cylinder. The clutch master cylinder operates of the brake fluid reservoir. Make sure you keep this full of brake fluid as you bleed the clutch.

How do you bleed the clutch on a 1991 Jeep Wranger 4-cylinder?
The clutch bleeding is similar to bleeding brakes. Although you must be sure the clutch cylinder is higher that the bleed fittings and if you can't get it to bleed you may have to purchase a tool at you local parts store that will force bleed the system. This will pull the air out of the system and pull the fluid in. Always be sure to keep the master clutch reservoir full at all times.
What is wrong with your clutch system if you just changed the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder and your clutch pedal wont engage the slave cylinder?
If you allowed the master/reservoir to drain empty while the line was disconnected or installed the master dry, you may have to remove the master and bench bleed it first. Always keep the reservoir full during the process.
Why won't the clutch push in s-10?
Check the fluid level in the clutch reservoir. If it is empty you have found the problem. An empty reservoir means you have a leak in the system. It could be the clutch master cylinder, the clutch slave cylinder or a hydraulic hose that is leaking. Any air trapped in the hydraulic system will give the clutch pedal poor performance so, simply filling the empty reservoir may or may not restore the clutch operation.

What do you do if a 1994 Hyundai Accent was not used for two months and now the clutch won't engage?
If your car has not been used lately the first thing you would want to do is look at your fluid levels. Most cars have a hydraulic clutch. The reservoir for this is usually next to the brake fluid reservoir. If your fluid is empty then your clutch will feel extremely loose and not work, you need to fill the reservoir and bleed the clutch. I hope this will help.
