Enrique:
This is a suggestion that I did not see scroll by, and a problem I
have run into. When the slave cylinder ships, the bleed screw is normally
threaded into the incorrect port. This, I guess is to prevent the screw
from punching holes in the box during shipment. Make sure that the bleed
screw is threaded into the hole that is uppermost. That, if I recall
correctly is the side hole. If it is not, then air will remain trapped, as
the bleed hole is not to the top.
I have run into this a number of times, people pull the unit out of
the box and slap it on the car figuring that it is correct.
good luck
Kelvin.
