it's extremely hard to get the car into any gear once I start driving the car when its warm. For example.. if i go for a drive.. shut off the car then 5 minutes later start the car.. it doesnt want to go into any gear.. but if im driving around for awhile its fun.

Anyways.. I'm leading to believe there's air in my system. So I bled the clutch a few times.. and there was air in the line. So it was fine for about a few hours.. then it came back. I bled the line again.. there was a tiny bit of air back into the system? I spoke to a friend, he asked if the piston fell out of the slave cylinder when I did my swap, I said yes and I cleaned it a bit and put it back where it belongs. He said that the piston might be causing air to get into the system?

Is that even possible? what should I do? I guess i'm just going to go to the wreckers and grab a hydro slave cylinder since im pretty sure all b/d's are the same.

It is going to be a bizzatch to bleed either way you go.

I think somebody makes a special pump looking thing to bleed all the air out properly.

sry i dont think u get what I'm saying... i bled the slave cylinder. There was no air after the 2nd shot. But now there's air back into my system. I believe its becuase the piston fell out. My friend had the same problem and he changed his slave cylinder and there was no more air in the sys.

looks like im going to buy a new slave cylinder for 20$.. but i'd still like to know my answer. Is there a proper way to put that piston back into the slave cylinder?
