Clutch master and slave cylinders should always be replaced together as should wheel cylinders and calipers(replaced in pairs). The clutch hydraulics are used 3 to 5 times more than the brakes (depends on how many speed trans you have) and wear evenly.

Hey Frank.When one cylinder goes the other usually follows because higher pressure needed to operate a new cylinder, sometimes the fluid leaks down the firewall or down your clutch pedal onto the floor, if its your master cylinder that is.You can get a new one or get your old one rehoned and a stainless steel tube inserted and it will last forever as theyre made of aluminium and wear. Either way you'l need to buy a new kit for the inside of it.Be mindful what you order as some models of cars the abs and non abs cylinders are a very slight different diameter. I hope this helps.

SOURCE: Clutch fluid resevoir

Clutch fluid and brake fluid are the same thing. It's usually only sold with the label "Brake Fluid", but it is used in the clutch system as well. In fact, a lot of vehicles only have the one reservoir for both brake and clutch systems. You should use DOT 4 or higher grade. Cheers.

SOURCE: Replaced whole clutch and slave

Sounds like you need to bleed the system again, or you have an air leak. try bleeding again and just check your fittings for tightness.

1990 Honda EX clutch. It does not ingage. It pops to the top or sticks to the floor

Not sure of the model EX, but it probably has a clutch hydraulic slave and master cylinder that has leaked out the hydraulic fluid. Fill the clutch master cylinder (near the brake master cylinder) with brake fluid and pump the clutch pedal several times. The clutch work again until the fluid leaks out, so the permanent fix is to replace the master and or slave cylinders and bleed the system. Other models have a clutch cable that would need replacing in this case

Symptoms low clutch fluid

The clutch fluid is also your brake fluid. If it is low then you have a leak somewhere, could be your slave cylinder, or even brake pads are low

How to blead clutch in 2004 holden clubsport

im assuming its a vy clubsport?
Make sure you remove all the old fluid from clutch resevior and clean it out properly.
You will need to raise the vehicle on a hoist or atleast 4 cat stands .
you will need 3 people in total to get the job done correctly.
fill the clutch resevior with new fluid.
get someone to stay under the car to open slave cylinder to release air.
someone to seat to drivers seat to pump clutch pedal.
and someone at resevior all the time to top up fluid.
when bleeding system just pump the pledal slowly when the person bleeding slave cylinder says hold.hold the pedal down with light pressure when the slave is open you will get air and then little fluid .
repeat process until just good flow of fluid comes out ,once this happens you should have a good pedal..
hope this helps you

No fluid comes out the clutch slave cylinder bleeder

make sure that the resevior is full then have someone push down on the clutch pedal a few times and hold it down on the last stroke while you open the slave cylinder valve. then repeat as necessary until fluid comes out. Dont't let the resevior run out of fluid.

1997 sonoma - clutch bleeding

I just did mine 2 days ago. There is a allen wrench spot on the back of the slave unit in the front of ******. You need one person with a good leg to get in truck and start pumping clutch one person under truck with allen wrench to loosen and tighten screw. Guy inside needs to pump maybe like thirty times up and down before it pays to open bleeder on slave unit.The guy inside needs to hold down clutch while the guy opens watches then closes bleeder. then guy from inside needs to go under hood to make sure the resevour still has enough fluid.It takes brake fluid in resevour. You don't want the resevour to run low on fluid or you will have to start all over. I had a small leak in the line leading to slave cylinder were I lost fluid and that's how I got air in system make sure you don't have any leaks. Good luck I know it works I have more clutch know then a year ago when I had the slave unit changed.
