Default Clutch Slave Cyl. replacement,Quick question

Hey guys just wanted to know what is the easiest way to re-pressurize the clutch after replacing the slave cyl?My clutch took a **** while getting movies the other night the pedal goes to the floor and stays there does not respring back up.I notcied that the resivor was empty and the slave cyl is leaking the fluid pretty badly.Anyone know if there is a tool i can use other than 2 people bleeding the thing.All the help is much appriciated.

Go to the local Co-op or animal supply house and get a BIG syringe, and some tubing to fit over the end of it...fill the syringe with brake fluid and inject it into the bleeder screw on the slave until you see the fluid rise in the reservoir.
Another way to do this job and not have to bleed at all, depends on model& year; take the slave off the trans housing and raise it higher than the reservoir, then change Slaves while holding it up high. you can have the bleed screw open and compress the slave cylinder to push out the air .....then close bleeder screw and put the slave back onto the clutch housing.
Check up under the dash to be sure the Master isn't leaking as well
Best of luck I hope this helps you
