How do you bleed the clutch slave cylinder on 2000 f150?
Best answer I've found is here (I have a 2001 F150): http://www.clutchwizard.com/fordtruck.htm Basically the problem is that the master cylinder is at the wrong angle to bleed the system completely with the master cylinder attached to the firewall. You have to take the master cylinder off the firewall and detach it from the clutch pedal, then tilt it to get the air into the line. After that, you bleed it in more or less the usual way, with a helper operating the bleed valve, but pushing the piston directly instead of pushing the clutch pedal. The alternative is to assemble the whole system off the truck and bleed it on a bench. Good thing they made the master cylinder and the brake cylinder out of PLASTIC, and put the slave cylinder INSIDE the bell housing, huh? (My slave cylinder went at less than 60K).
How do you bleed your Honda clutch?
There's a bleeder valve on the clutch slave cylinder, which is usually located on the front of the transmission up front near the radiator and such. To bleed the clutch you open it. And be prepared for it to take a while, cause there's a lot more fluid in those lines than you would think. You'll have to top off the Master cylinder reservoir more than a few times.

Is a 96 Mitsubishi lancer clutch hydrolic or cable?
Open the hood, and take a look at your firewall. If it has a clutch master cylinder its a hydrolic. If you only see your brake booster and thats it, chances are its a cable clutch. But as a basic rule, if you have a master and slave cylinder it is hydrolic.
What does it mean if you lose pressure on your clutch?
Can mean a few things. Low hydraulic fluid( brake fluid) in clutch master cylinder, worn clutch disc, needs bleed, slave cylinder slowly losing seal, seals in master cylinder, linkage problem. It could go forever but it is probably just the clutch disk material. To sum it up it means take it to the shop because if you don't know what it could be you most likely don't know how to fix it and it will only get worse to the point where it will not move
Where is the bleeder valve for the hydraulic clutch on a 1996 ford escort?
The bleeder valve is on the front of the clutch housing. There is a metal line that goes from the firewall master cylinder to the slave cylinder. The metal line goes across the transmission. Follow it and you will find a bleeder screw with a rubber cover on it. Take the cover off to bleed the system.

Good time to replace all the brake fluid. Remove the brake lines from the Master Cylinder and pump the master cylinder dry. Add fresh brake fluid from an unopened can and bleed the master cylinder. Reinstall the brake lines and then bleed all brake lines until you see clean fluid. Keep adding fluid to the Master Cylinder until you are done.Good time to replace all the brake fluid.
