Tony Radford Tony try this. Put the rod of the slave cylinder all the way in. You will have to crack the bleeder. Put dot 3 back in the system. If you can't move the slave rod in by hand the seals are swelled and you need new seals. with the slave piston all the way in close the bleeder and pump the clutch pedal slowly in. Get someone to watch the slave rod extend. Make sure you have fluid in the res. Do this slowly as not to let air bubbles get into the line. After you have done this a couple of times you should see the fork move. Reset the linkage so that the return spring holds the throwout bearings off the pressure plate. Tap on the slave cylinder with a wrench a couple of times easy to help remove any air left in the system, crack the bleeder for a couple of seconds. then stop if you see no air bubbles in the bleeder. You may have to do this a couple of times. If after the 3 rd time still have no clutch. Call back. You may have alot of air in the system so do this way 2 times. You can collect the dot3 and use it again as long as you keep the dirt and wet out of it. Give me a call if you still cann't get it. 1-732-254-3536 Rick Lake
