Figuring that I might have not bled the master cylinder successfully, I used the previous feed hose (which I had cut to remove) and made a hose to go back into the reservoir. It seemed to work fine, but I needed to use some pliers to pinch it off when returning the pedal to the top of it's travel until the bubble you see in the line had passed..




Then I went back and re-blead the slave cylinder. Something didn't seem right, and then I noticed brake fluid dripping onto the floor. Long story short, the push-rod pushed out of the cylinder. Why did that happen? I'm not completely sure but when I put my finger into the hole in the bell-housing, I don't seem to be feeling anything but pressure plate. I would expect to feel the clutch release arm in there.

Did the release arm fall out of position or break? I'm not sure, but my borescope is recharging. I'll post what I find. But I suspect that I'll need another slave cylinder now.
