Clutch slave replacement info needed.

How long do you think this will take 20 min tops? with bleeding. Im going to head out soon and just replace it and gravity bleed it. Let it all drain out and start pouring in fluid. I don't have anyone that can push down the clutch pedal. Any special proceedures?

Ok, just replaced it, and I only got the bleed the slave itself. I can't crack open the other bleeder by the strut. The catch point of the clutch is way smoother, its not harsh. Is this suppost to be correct?

You can try going to kragen/autozone/pepboys and borrow a vaccum bleeder. Or if the car runs, drive over to a friend's house to complete the bleed. The bleeder by the strut can be a toughie... try using some penetrating oil on it first. Be careful not to let it spray onto painted surfaces.

I already bleed the slave itself, the pedal isnt as stiff as I wanted it to be. I can't open up the other bleeder. I used pb-blaster on it and still can't open it up. Im 100% positive that there is no more air in the slave unit. Now im not sure if theres any more air in the other bleeder.
