How do you adjust the clutch on a Nissan 240sx when the slave cylinder is no longer able to reach far enough out to push in the clutch even though the clutch is not worn out.?

the slave is totally hydrolic on the 240's and you might be getting air in the lines so I would try bleeding the system... the slave has a bleeder screw on it. pump the clutch pedal 4-5 times and hold it to the bottom. Then let the screw on the slave loose and tighten it back. repeat this util there is a strong stream of fluid that flows from the bleeder... Also make sure you are not making things worse by letting the air in throught he master. IT MUST HAVE FLUID AT ALL TIMES DURING THIS PROCESS or it won't work. If the problem persists make sure your master is good by listening for any hissing after the clutch is pressed in or pumped. If it hisses it most likely has a bad seal. otherwise try replacing the slave.

How do you adjust a hydraulic clutch 2003 dodge diesel 3500 6 speed?
There are no adjustments on a HYDRAULIC CLUTCH SYSTEM. The clutch disc is ether worn out, or the clutch slave cylinder is going bad. Is the clutch master cylinder full of fluid ?? If not there is a leak in the system, and you are not depressing the throw out bearing far enough. and that makes it hard to shift.
How do you know if the clutch cylinder on a 97 suzuki sidekick is bad and it is not the clutch?
After you have located the clutch slave cylinder, have someone depress the clutch pedal. You should see the piston of the slave cylinder extend somewhat. If it does not, either the slave cylinder is bad, or the master cylinder, or, there is not enough brake fluid in the system for it to operate properly. Check the level in the master cylinder. If the slave cylinder is leaking profusely, it is probably bad.
What is your problem when you put the clutch in and you can't put it in first or reverse?
Probably the clutch is not disengaging. This could be due to the clutch cable being out of adjustment, or the clutch master cylinder not having enough fluid, the clutch slave cylinder being worn out, or the throw out bearing being shot. Try to have a mechanic look at it.
How do i adjust the clutch pedal on a 1992 stanza it won't return?
I had it happen to me; had to replace the slave cylinder due to a leak, and the master cylinder is also leaking slightly, so it may need to be replaced shortly. Make sure the clutch line has enough brake fluid in it (you can check levels and fill it under the hood near the driver. Hope this helps.

How do you adjust clutch on 1993 Mazda Protege DX which has to be pushed all the way in and shifted carefully and hydraulic cylinder cannot be located under hood for adding fluid?
The clutch master cylindar should be right beside the brake master cylindar. I have run across a couple of cars that have the brakes on the passenger side but never the clutch. I assume this holds true for your car. As far as adjusting a hydraulic clutch, they don't. If the clutch is not pushing in enough, it is usually the slave cylindar which is located on the bell housing of the transmission. They get worn and need to be replaced.
1997 Nissan frontier clutch goes to the floor and does not come back up?
My 2000 does it. The slave cylinder rod gets some corrosion around the rubber boot, just enough to cause it to stick when pedal is down all the way, especially after a few days not driven. Easiest fix is a slave cylinder kit, they are pretty cheap.
Slave cylinder on my 86 Corvette does not seem to push the throwout bearing enough to disengage clutch any suggestions Has new slave cylinder and new clutch master cylinder. Has been bled.?
sounds like air in the system, to properly bleed the slave cylinder you must remove the mount screws and hold it so the bleed port is up

How do you adjust the clutch on a 2003 Kia Rio?
they have a cable clutch, so you will have to find where the cable connects to the motor and transmission and there will be a nut on the end of the clutch cable.....tighten the nut ...but not too much you will have to tighten a little and see if that's enough however normally it is the begining of the end when you have to do that.
The clutch does not properly disengage causing gear grinding Renault master is the clutch adjustable?
there should either be a screw adjuster on the arm that pushes on the throw-out bearing or similar. I had many old Renaults and always did clutch adjusts on them without problems, don't remember exactly how. But if you aren't dissengaging then the throw-out bearing is not pushing in far enough, so you need to adjust so there is more pressure on the throw out bearing when it is not engaged, so when it is engaged (clutch pushed in) it pushes farther. Be careful or when not engaged you could have clutch-slip. To find the adjuster, find the arm coming out of the clutch housing, just follow it back and you will find the adjuster, has to be a screw pushing the lever, or maybe a screw on the back on slave cylinder that pushes the plunger in/out against the throw out bearing arm.The master cylinder is not adjustable, the adjustment will either be on the slave cylinder or someplace in that area.
Problems bleeding the slave cylinder on a 240sx Nissan?
i do not exactly understand the question. there usually are not problems associated with bleeding the slave cylinder on a 240sx transmission, but i will explain how to do it. locate the slave cylinder on your 240sx under the car on the passenger side of the 240sx. you will need a 10mm open-end wrench to loosen the nut on the slave cylinder. loosen it enough that it spins freely, you do not want to loosen it so much that it comes off. you will need a second person inside the car to pump the clutch. loosen the nut on the slave cylinder, have the person inside the car push in the clutch pedal and hold it down, then tighten the nut on the slave cylinder. repeat this process until there is a steady stream of fluid shooting out of the slave cylinder. then you will need to replace the lost fluid with DOT3 brake fluid in the clutch fluid reservoir under the hood, which is to the top back right of the engine bay.
