Unable to bleed the throw out bearing on my 1999 Ranger 3.0 5 speed. I replaced the clutch and throw out bearing three weeks ago. I pulled the inner fender panel and removed the master cylinder so that any air trapped in it (because it normally sits at a 60-75 degree angle) could get out. I tried working the master cylinder and pulling a vacuum with a hand vacuum (as much as 25 pounds) I have not gotten more than a few drops of fluid out of the throw out bearing bleed screw.
Master cylinder worked fine before I changed the clutch. How can I tell if the problem is the new throw out bearing or the master cylinder?
