Baconbitsforu Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I'm helping a buddy with his 1998 3500. Has the nv4500 on it. How and the heck do you bleed out the slave cylinder? I can't find any thing on it to bleed it with. [ATTACH]4518[/ATTACH][ATTACH]4519[/ATTACH]Thanks for the help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel4life Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 The way we ended up doing on a friends truck was hook line to slave up and before installing hold slave upright with line towards the top leave cap off master cylinder and pump the hell outta it air will eventually work up towards top might be better ways to do it but worked for usForgot to mention we also filled it up before hooking the line up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cummin Dodge Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I haven't messed with the one of those clutch setups before but, I have bleed brakes that you couldn't get the bleeder screws loose before by pushing down the pedal and loosening the line instead of the bleeder. If you haven't got it bleed yet, that's what I would try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dripley Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Here is Mike's write up http://articles.mopar1973man.com/2nd-generation-24v-dodge-cummins/28-transmission-systems/54-hydraulic-clutch-master-and-slave-replacement My replacement had a bleeder screw on it and I bled on the truck. I am not sure how to bleed one with out the screw and on the truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Mopar1973Man Posted October 1, 2012 Owner Share Posted October 1, 2012 Dripley is right the whole unit has to be removed and bled hanging vertical to remove all air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
