bleed the slave cylinder. if that doesn't help, then it probably is a bad slave cylinder...

I want to bleed my slave cylinder. Mine is on the drivers side almost under the fender, not under the master cylinder. Is mine still a gravity bleed?

yea it is a gravity bleeder also, but to ensure it is done properly, open the bleeder and have someone press the clutch while you or someone else pours fluid into the master cylinder.....then close the bleeder...
