I had just lost my clutch peddle meaning the car wouldnt go into gear and the peddle was full. Of play. So I checked master cylinder and slave cylinder. I seen there was fluid coming from slave so I replaced it. While bleeding it the peddle stopped going to floor and I can now shift into any gear without touching the peddle and im at a loss what do I do?

You have to disconnect slave and hold at a 45 degree angle to bleed it. Try that also don't let master go dry.

Thanks for leading me into the right direction. I unmounted the slave went back through the bleeding process four or five times. I then pulled the bleed valve all the way out and pushed in the rod on the slave while doing that I had a friend reinstall the valve all the while keeping the rod in. Once I did that I reinstalled and the clutch was back. So thanks for the advice.

Throw out Bearing Replacement
A throw out bearing is used to apply force against the clutch pressure plate to release the clutch and should be replaced as part of the normal clutch job. It is a good idea...
