I've done everything the manufacture said to do to bleed the slave cylinder and I still have no pedel after an hour of pumping the clutch pedel. WHAT ELSE AM I MISSING?

Hello,

Did you change the Clutch Slave? If so did you also change the Clutch Master?

Did you bleed the Master? Also have you tried just opening the bleeder screw on the slave and letting it gravity bleed. If you do of course make sure the master doesn't go dry but let it get down about 3/4 and refill do this about 3 - 4 times and see what happens.

Ok, is there an inspection plate or a rubber plug that can be removed to inspect the clutch itself. If so have someone press on the peddle and watch the action of the clutch. It could be that the pressure plate forks are weak.
