2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual

Replaced a clutch with visible wear after it jammed and wouldn't engage. Went to test drive, clutch master cylinder pushrod broke, had to replace the whole cylinder. No bleed valve, bled by pumping as in installation instructions, no pressure building except an inch off the floor, never gets more than that. No movement at all at the clutch release cylinder(clutch slave cyl). Replace it?

Mitchell says you may have to pump it 60-100 times to get theair out.If that doesnt work, unbolt theslave and let it hang so its the lowest part of the system.Then push in therod on the slave to force theair backwards through the system.If that doesnt work, the master may be shot.But it sounds like it has air in it.
