No Clutch

3rd Post seeking help, maybe this one will work. Replaced clutch plate, pressure plate, slave cylinder, master cylinder...now unable to get release bearing to move at all when clutch pedal is depressed. Did the old two-man bleeding method, vacuum bleed method, and finally the pressure bleed method and still nothing. Upon installation of clutch, made sure flat side was towards flywheel, release bearing installed with the little ring on that keeps bearing compressed against slave cylinder and pre-bled master cylinder. Anyone have any ideas that can get this 94 ranger back on the road?

Can we assume that there was fluid movement at the bleed valve?

Yes, have fluid flow at the bleeder valve, during vacuum and pressure bleed, got excellent fluid flow. Gravity bleed warrants a slow trickle of fluid.

where did you get the slave cylinder from you might gotten a bad one from the get go.I hope it was not a remanufactured one that might be your promblem.Just a thought.

P.S. I hate those internal slave cylinders the person who thought that up should be stood in front of a firing squad.

When i had my slave replaced they said they are a pain in the **** to bleed, and when i picked up the truck they had to bleed it again. Keep bleeding it, if no go, then you have a defective slave.
