How To Bleed A Hydraulic Clutch Slave Cylinder?

The specific steps may vary depending on the vehicle make and model. Always consult the vehicle’s owner’s manual for detailed instructions and safety precautions.

What you’ll need:

1. Brake fluid (check the vehicle’s specifications for the recommended type)
2. Clear plastic tubing
3. A container to collect the old brake fluid

Step 1: Prepare the Vehicle

• Park the vehicle on a level surface and engage the parking brake.
• Open the vehicle’s hood and locate the clutch master cylinder reservoir. It is usually located near the brake master cylinder.

Step 2: Fill the Clutch Master Cylinder Reservoir

• Remove the cap from the clutch master cylinder reservoir.
• Check the fluid level and ensure it is at the recommended level. If necessary, add the specified brake fluid to bring it to the correct level. Be careful not to overfill.

Step 3: Locate the Clutch Slave Cylinder

• Locate the clutch slave cylinder, which is usually mounted on or near the transmission bell housing.
• Identify the bleeder valve on the slave cylinder. It is a small valve with a dust cap.

Step 4: Attach the Tubing

• Attach one end of the clear plastic tubing to the bleeder valve on the slave cylinder. Place the other end into a container to collect the old brake fluid.

Step 5: Bleeding Process

• Enlist the help of an assistant to assist with the bleeding process.
• Instruct your assistant to press and hold the clutch pedal to the floor.
• Open the bleeder valve on the slave cylinder by turning it counterclockwise. As the valve is opened, fluid and air bubbles will be pushed through the tubing into the container.
• Instruct your assistant to inform you when the clutch pedal reaches the floor and to keep it held down.

Step 6: Close the Bleeder Valve

• Once your assistant informs you that the pedal is fully depressed, close the bleeder valve clockwise. Ensure it is tightly closed.

Step 7: Repeat the Process

• Instruct your assistant to release the clutch pedal slowly. Air bubbles and fluid will be drawn back into the system as they release the pedal.
• Repeat the bleeding process by opening the bleeder valve, having your assistant depress the clutch pedal, and then closing the valve. Repeat this process several times until no air bubbles are visible in the tubing.

Step 8: Check the Fluid Level and Repeat if Necessary

• After bleeding, check the fluid level in the clutch master cylinder reservoir. Add more brake fluid if needed to maintain the recommended level.
• If the clutch pedal still feels spongy or inconsistent, repeat the bleeding process until a firm pedal feel is achieved.

Step 9: Final Checks

• Once the bleeding process is complete, ensure that the bleeder valve is tightly closed.
• Remove the plastic tubing and clean any spilled brake fluid.
• Replace the clutch master cylinder reservoir cap.
