After driving for about twenty minutes the clutch needs bled. This will fix the problem for about another twenty minutes, which more air pressure will build up. The amount of air released is significant. I think their may be a pinhole somewhere in the line. Which is the best approach to fixing this. I've replaced the slave cylinder; please help. Thank you

Hi cartell730,

When air is able to get into the system, possible areas are the master cylinder, hoses and the slave cylinder.

If hoses are the cause, you would be able to notice the presence of clutch fluids. Get an assistance to depress and hold the clutch pedal while you check and see if any leaks occurs.

Check the master cylinder for internal leaks.
