Fix soft or no clutch pressure
Here’s how you can get the clutch pedal pressure back by bleeding air out of your slave cylinder. Unlike brakes, most hydraulic clutches have no bleeder screw to get the air out, so you’ll have to do some wrenching to get the air out. There may be a possibility of restoring some pressure on the road if you add more hydraulic fluid and remove the slave cylinder, which is only two bolts. You can then review the slave cylinder part at the beginning of the video. Click on image for video.
