I was trying to bleed my clutch after changing the clutch, and i am having a problem. i bleed it just as i would with brakes. but it seems like there is no air left in the lines, and still yet the pedal goes to the floor most of the time. the slave cylinder still moves a lil bit, but not enough to do anything. would that mean i need a new slave cylinder?

another question, what is with the lines going into a block or whatever it is before going into the slave cylinder. it has it’s own bleed screw as well, not sure what it is or what the point of it is.? it is a 91 240

oh and does anyone havea slave cylinder for me?  
thanks

that b;ock = proportioning block…

anyone here who has done clutch work on their car will have bypassed that

slave cylinder is $30 from napa… always a good idea to change that when changing the clutch…
