SOURCE: leaking clutch 85 s10 blazer

First, unless you have just done some clutch work you should not need to be bleeding the clutch hydraulic system...that shows that it's leaking. There is nothing inside the bellhousing that has anything to do with clutch fluid, so, the fluid you see is either engine or transmission oil (rear main seal or seal on trans input shaft) Could it be that the clutch slave is leaking and it's running down and dripping at the bottom of the housing? (clean it up and check that)

SOURCE: 1975 Chevy Scottsdale clutch will not disengage

Pretty simple system there. If you can depress the pedal and the linkage moves the end of the fork that enters the bell housing, try lengthening the rod at the fork. Also check the linkage bushings for excessive wear. If you already lengthened the rod then it's likely that the clutch is not working properly and needs to be removed and checked.
If the pedal does not move, likely that it has been sitting and the throwout bearing has frozen to the nose of the transmission. Sometimes squirting wd40 on it through the opening where the fork is will help that, otherwise it needs to come apart.
If you don't understand what I recommended or have a specific question about a particular part, just ask.

1988 Chevy scottsdale front brakes locked up brake fluid full help

If your brake hose collapsed internally that will cause brakes to lock to be sure its the hose and not the calipers open the bleed screw and see if the rotor release. If they stay locked then maybe calipers seized try to pry brake pads apart with caliper mounted and brake bleeder open if they return easy then change your brake hose.

How do u bleed a hadralic clutch on 85 Fiero

this is done the same way as bleeding the brakes. make sure the clutch cylinder does not run out of brake fluid. the pedal should feel firm all the way through its travel and not soft.

Chevy 88 1500 chevy scottsdale

I take it that you are talking clutch system . There will be little pressure in the master cyl side until you bleed out all the air. The suction you feel is when the piston returns and draws in more fluid from the reservoir so that there is a full charge of fluid for the next stroke. remove the bleed screw and place your finger over the hole and use your finger as a valve until you get full fluid flow. Replace the bleed screw and finally bleed out the air . that got in while you were replacing the screw.

Working on 1988 chevy Scottsdale the clutch line got a leak so I changed it and tried to bleed and nothkng. I checked to see if master cylinder was pumping and had to replace also. Dealer said he replaced...

If you can get a hand operated vacuum pump and seal it in place of the cap on the master cylinder apply vacuum and you will see the air bubbles being removed from the slave cylinder. It has always worked for me.
