I can't suppress the spring in the slave and get it into position at the same time... my "New" slave didn't come with a "plunger" retainer like I see in some pictures... I dumped all of the fluid out and goit it on once, but after about 50,000 pumps to bleed it, it would just barely move the clutch fork, not enough to engage tranny... (I just put a new clutch/pressure plate in) before I replaced the clutch it was close to the floor to engage... I just quit on it for a while... hope you got a good idea for me... thanks rg
