Ok so I have air in my lines on an 01 Silverado 1500 clutch system.

No leaks in any part of the system.

NEW master installed, and still cant get it bled out. I have tried the push clutch, open bleeder, close bleeder, repeat...

I also gravity bled a half a quart through it. And I also tried reverse bleeding with gravity.

It just simply has air in it, and I can not get it out. Going to try to use the method of: Open bleeder, press pedal to the floor, close bleeder, repeat...

If any one has any tips or tricks, PLEASE let me know. I did search, but maybe i missed something!

 

Turns out that my pedal assembly was cracked allowing the master to move, and not deliver a full push to the slave. I found this out when the master came flying off of the firewall... new assembly installed, clutch bled, all is well.

 

i ended up using a Tick performance master cylinder from a vette, takes some modding but is a nice answer for that cheap stock setup when dealing with heavy duty clutches

 

Was that piece entirely plastic? I broke my pedal a few years ago and resulted in the pedal just laying on the floor. Im wondering if all the silverado pedal linkage is plastic.

 

All pedals are plastic
The stock master is plastic

 

George, I plan on taking the broken pedal, and installing a plate where the stock master mounts, adding a spacer, and mounting a tilton master on it. Ill install this when I get ready to put in a T-56 if I keep the standard, and don't swap to an automatic.

 

I had that mod with the firewall played with 2 of 1/8" plates

 

George, any tips on a solid setup? I am looking to fab something up this winter.
