I replaced my slave cylinder last week. This week I noticed in my clutch reservoir was dirty so i wanted to bleed it again to put new fluid in. Yesterday as i am bleeding the slave i lost pressure to the clutch.
Even bleeding the clutch i still havent gotten pressure back to the clutch. Any suggestions?

How did you bleed it? Reverse bleed? Pressure bleed? Pump and Dump?
We put a tube around the bleeder valve ran that tube to a bottle with clutch/brake fluid to prevent air bubbles, filled the reservoir up with fluid, went inside the car pumped it 3-4 times got no results with. So we went and got a bottle to push fluid into the slave cylinder and only a little bit of fluid went in. The bottle/pump got stiff as pushing fluid in there. Went to check the clutch pedal and still no pressure
