i had just lost my clutch peddle meaning the car wouldnt go into gear and the peddle was full.of play. So i checked master cylinder and slave cylinder. i seen there was fluid coming from slave so i replaced it. while bleeding it the peddle stopped going to floor and i can now shift into any gear without touching the peddle and im at a loss what do i do?

you have to disconnect slave and hold at a 45 degree angle to bleed it. try that also don't let master go dry.

Thanks for leading me into the right direction. I unmounted the slave went back through the bleeding process four or five times. I then pulled the bleed valve all the way out and pushed in the rod on the slave while doing that i had a friend reinstall the valve all the while keeping the rod in. once i did that i reinstalled and the clutch was back. so thanks for the advice.
