Toyota Repair: 86 toyota corolla,,, hydraulic clutch, hydraulic clutch, clutch pedal


Question
Can you tell me how to bleed the hydraulic clutch. The master resevoir was pretty much empty. I filled it, had my friend push the pedal to the floor and opened the bleeder valve on the slave cylinder. I did this many (100) times. Still no clutch pedal pressure. The slave plundger does extend, but not with and pressure. If I squeeze the plundger back in...I get air bubbles back in the Resevoir. I must be doing it wrong. I even tried pushing fluid backwards through the system, but it wouldnt go in. any advise???

Answer
With the bleeder valve closed have someone pump the clutch pedal until there is some sort of resistance then open the valve to let some air out, close the valve before pumpimg the pedal again and repeat this process, if no air comes out of the cylinder there is another problem and the cylinders may need to be replaced.
