need help on 93 3.0 5spd.

So i bought a 1993 Ranger with 3.0L V6 with 5spd...engine needed to be replaced so i pulled it and bought another engine from buddy....put engine back in and installed new perfection clutch because my bro works at Advance Auto Parts...well put it all back together..bought a new clutch slave cylinder also....but put it back to gether and tried to bleed the clutch...can't get resistance on clutch...so went last night and bought new clutch master cylinder with new resevoiur...tried to bleed it today....still have the same problem...can anyone guide me in what i need to do now??? I'm getting fluid out of the bleed valve on slave cylinder...just cant get pressure and resistance on clutch...any help is very much appreciated. Thank You in advance!!!

You probably have an air lock in the clutch master cylinder. You will have to remove it from the firewall and point the line end up so gravity bleeding can force the air out then reinstall

i think i know what your saying wvcat...but it was the same way on the old master cylinder....i just assumed the old one had gone out..so bought new one and still does same thing...you think there may be an air lock on it though??? I'll take it back off and see what i can do. i'll let you know if there is any difference. Thanks
