    Help !I changed sprokets and chain and had the slave cylinder off. Piston came out put it back and went to bleed system. Can not get pressure on clutch to bleed. Very weak flow comes out, it seems air is out and still no clutch. Does not seem to be leak in system I noticeed the rod that goes into the clutch assembley ( piston should push) will not move and it did come out?
    Could the slave cylinder be bad? I was good before I took it off.
    Any suggestions appreciated

    Try to bleed the clutch at the banjo bolts. Air likes to get trapped there.

    Get a Mity-Vac and force it to bleed. They work great.

    clutch fixed

    Thanks for the advice, all good. What I ended up doing was take the slave cylinder off its mount and pumped the pistion in for some time getting the air out through the master cylinder
