How would you know if air is present in a hydraulic clutch linkage?

hydraulics work because fluids are considered a non-compressible material.
therefore when you put your foot down on the clutch pedal it pushes the hydraulic fluid pressure through the line to disengage the clutch.
if there is air in the line the air bubble will compress (gases ARE compressible) and you will feel a "spongy pedal" and you will have to "pump" the clutch pedal to move that air bubble down the hydraulic line before you get a "good" clutch

What would it be difficult to shift into first gear?
a) Check gear oil level/condition. b) or you have a worn synchronizer. Verify that your clutch linkage is adjusted, if this is a cable linkage vehicle. Hydraulic units are not suppose to be adjustable. Your difficulty with getting the vehicle into first gear could be a result of the throw-out fork not fully releasing the clutch disk; hence the above suggestion to verify that the clutch mechanism is adjusted properly for full travel of the throw-out fork.
My 1988 comanchee 2wd 4.0 is hard to get in gear even just sittin there when you put it in 1st please help?
If it shifts somewhat normally when the engine is off but gets very difficult when it's running, you probably need to have the clutch repaired. A warped or damaged clutch disk or pressure plate can make it very difficult to shift. That's assuming you've checked the clutch linkage or hydraulics (whichever it uses). If the clutch linkage isn't adjusted or if the clutch master or slave cylinder (for hydraulic clutches) isn't working properly, that would be the source of your problem.

What if your 1987 Chevy s10 clutch is not engaging how can you fix that?
If the clutch was not disengaging I would say the clutch master is empty of hydraulic fluid, this would be a result of a leak in the master or the slave cylinder. If the clutch is not engaging I would suspect the clutch disc has shredded in which case the clucth assembly would have to be replaced.
