No, the slave cylinder is a typical hydraulic piston; if the system was 'opened' then the fluid would come out.

Where is slave cylinder bleeder on 900 Saab?

If you follow the line from the clutch master cylinder it will lead you along the driver's side of the vehicle towards the front of the car. You will have to move the hose from the air intake to be able to view the slave nipple. It is located above where the line goes into the slave cylinder. We lossened this nipple with a size 13mm socket and were able to open and close with our hand. Hope that helps!


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 change the slave cylinder on a 1997 ford escort?

Disconnect the hydraulic line nut from the cylinder with a flare nut wrench. Plug the line. Remove the slave cylinder bolts and remove it from the clutch housing. Put the new cylinder on the clutch housing and tighten the mounting bolt. Make sure the brake master cylinder is full of fluid. Have an assistant pump the pedal several times and then hold it to the floor. Then open the bleeder valve on the slave cylinder to let the air out. Do this several times. When the air quits bubblin out you'll want your helper to hold the clutch pedal to the floor while you close the bleeder .
