Google "Bleeding the clutch on 1992 F150". That should show many links.

I used a mighty vac pump to start mine when I changed slave cylinders. Hook up to bleeder and pump away.

What engine/trans do you have? The procedure is different if you have internal or external slave cylinder.

^^^^ That would be helpful, but from your username I assume you have a 5.8 engine? That would mean an internal slave cylinder. My question would be have you checked the fluid level in the clutch master cylinder? Usually if the fluid level has dropped too low causing your condition, you can just add fluid and pump the clutch pedal several times and drive normally and the pedal will work OK. The more you drive the pedal will return more to normal, that has been my experience anyway.

Anyway how did this come about? Have you checked the fluid level in the clutch master cylinder?
