    no but the reason i put a new clutch in was the tranny would not go into third the synchro's were bad and the pressure plate and disc were worn i didnt have problems with the slave cylinder

    Keep trying ford hydraulics can be difficult to bleed, pump pump and pump. You may try putting a vacuum on the master cylinder and sucking the air out of the top.
