I replaced slave cylinder on f350 and got pedal back then it slowly went away I can pump it alot and then it works but loses tension quickly I can only assume air in system but it has no bleeder? How do I remove the air?

Ford dealer told me it come all parts together already bleeded (master, line and slave) and even my autopart store is only listed for this kit. But you can bleed it. Remove the slave from the bellhousing(turn a 1/4 turn counter-clock), pump the slave piston, remove the roll pin and let the air exit the line and cylinder then fill the slave with the oil leaking from the line and join them while the oil is leaking. I repeated those steps 2-3 time while pumping the master between steps and the pedal feel like we never touched the hydraulic system. Just make sure to keep your reservoir filled during those procedure.
