What master CLY did you replace clutch or brakes you have air in the slave CLY for the clutch system and you will have to bleed the system and make sure you don't run low on brake fluid while you are bleeding the system.

SOURCE: clutch pedal stays down

Still have air in system.. Try this: Pull pedal up,fill reservoir to the top, open bleed nipple on slave cyl all the way,leave for a while to "gravity feed" keeping the reservoir full,& an eye on the nipple, until all bubbles are expelled and clean brakefluid drips out(could take a few minutes). Close the nipple, and bleed system as usual....

SOURCE: Bleeding clutch slave cylinder

i think youre doing the right thing. they are very stubborn to bleed because the hyd. line goes up high across back of engine before droppiing back down to slave cyl., trapping air. could try to gravity bleed by opening bleeder at slave, cap off of master cyl, full with fluid then it may start to come out after a bit. then try your process again. or can try to bleed at connections further up the line, working your way back to bleeder. hope this helps. be patient.

SOURCE: every time I bleed my clutch line on my 1998 chevy

there should be two bolts/nut that hold the master cylinder.
look under the dash on top of the clutch pedal

The clutch on my 2006 pontiac solstice feels like the clutch cable has broken. i dont even know if it has one, or what the equivalent would be. the tension feels the same, but pushing the pedal does...

The tension you are feeling is probably the pedal spring under the dash to pull the cable back.. Open the bonnet and if you see a cable in the fire wall where the clutch pedal the you have a cable operation and it will need replacing. If you see a master cylinder next to the brake master cylinder then you have hydraulic system and it have to be bled or the master cylinder replaced Talk to a reputable service shop to have it fixed.

Fixed a master cylinder and slave cylinder on 2000 s10 pickup now i have no pressure on clutch what is the problem

The air needs to be bled out of system. Should have a "bleeder" on the slave cylinder resevoir. Fill 1st and open bleeder screw. Have someone push clutch pedal down and close bleeder when pedal is fully depressed. Do not pump pedal. Repeat until a steady stream of fluid is achieved. REMEMBER TO WATCH RESEVOIR LEVEL AND KEEP FULL DURING THIS PROCESS!!!! Top off when finished bleeding. This should fix your issue.

I just replaced the clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearing and both the master and slave cylinders. I am not getting any significant travel in the slave when I push the pedal in. How much travel should...

you may just open the bleeder, and let it gravity bleed. make sure on the master cylinder that the piston is coming all the way back when the pedal is all the way back/up. there's an adjustment for that, on the rod connecting the clutch pedal to the master cylinder.

Clutch pedal does not disengage clutch in '91 Chevy pickup. Changed Master Cylinder, slave cylinder, and bled hydraulic line. Still not disengaging clutch.Maybe throwout bearing stuck? Or clutch fork?

If the car hasn't been driven for a while it could be corrosion on the fork but I think that is unlikely. I think you are right about the release bearing being jammed in the spring. If the truck has quite high mileage, it probably means a clutch job.

My clutch pedal wont spring back once i've released it. I've replaced the clutch, clutch fork & clips, throw-out bearing, clutch master cylinder, and even a slave cylinder. On top of all that, i've...

A clutch pedal not springing back is almost always an indication that there is air in the system. Bleeding out a clutch is a tedious endeavor to say the least.
I suggest you open up the bleeder screw & gravity bleed the clutch.(This will take a long time as well!)

Clutch

Stop driving the car now! The clutch master cylinder has an adjustable pushrod, it is set up too long now. Take it back to where it was done and tell them if they don't know how to set up clutch free play, they shouldn't have attempted the job. This may have cost you a $3500. clutch job. Get it adjusted fast.
