SOURCE: Where is slave cylinder for clutch on 1994 Isuzu pickup 2.3 litre
To determine which type of clutch you have, servo hydraulic or cable.
Look down past the engine bell housing and determine the existance of a hydraulic clutch slave cylinder.(a piece of casting with a rod facing towards the rear of the vehicle pocket into a bracket protruding out of the gearbox bell housing. As well as a pipe and bleed nipple to be crude)
(which I believe you have).The hydraulic fluid for this unit is sourced from the brake master cylinder reservoir via a sneaky pipe partially obscured to the clutch master cylinder on the internal firewall.If you have no clutch slave cylinder near the bell housing there would be an obvious bounden cable running from the firewall down to the outer of which will be stopped at a bracket hanging off the engine.The inner will continue to a bracket protruding from the gearbox bell housing.

There is a pipe that carries fluid to the slave, it's a braided item and perishes over time, when you depress the clutch, you'll find this pipe expanding and taking the fluid, change this pipe and bleed the system and the clutch will be working fine.

if the fluid hasn't gone down, then likely no leak. therefore suspect either a mechanical linkage problem, or a by-pass problem.
Start by checking the linkage to the master cylinder to make sure that the pedal is actually actuating it.
Other possible causes are:
air trapped in the system which will give a spongy feel to the pedal;
fluid by-passing the piston, I'd expect that if the by-pass was in the slave, the pedal would have some resistance.
you can bleed the clutch system but need something like a radiator pressurising pump to pressurise the system (pump once or twice only to avoid over-pressurising! and don't let reservoir get empty) Otherwise it's just like bleeding brakes.
Hope this helps, if it does please give me a "thumbs up"!
Thanks

SOURCE: clutch slave cylinder replacement or repair -
You will have to replace the rubber and the piston like mechanism to get this done. If you found an assembly replacement for the entire clutch slave, the better. The leaks may be caused by faulty rubber or valve on the piston but this can be caused by the linings of the cylinder becoming rough due to wear and tear.
SOURCE: no clutch pedal been bleeding it for 3 days
these are notorius for clutch bleeding problems, there is no good answer other than to keep pumping that pedal, eventually it will bleed out
