The slave cylinder was just replaced because it was leaking. We found that the slave cylinder was bad because the clutch pedal was staying on the floor when it was pushed in. The cylinder has been replaced and there is now fluid in the reservoir, but the pedal still does not have any pressure. What do we do to fix this? Thank you

The system has to be bled out to remove all air. That is not an easy thing to do since the bleeder is at the bottom and the air tends to rise to the top.
