To test the master cylinder....

1) Take the bleeder screw out of the slave cyl and stick it into the outlet of the master cylinder.
2) Bleed the master cylinder.

You should have a solid pedal.
If you have any movement you have a problem with the master cylinder.

ok i went and purchased a new slave cylinder got home fitted it and all is now working as it should and the clutch has never felt better
thank you to all the advice
till the next..

Peter.

Just a couple of questions, have you adjusted the 7/16 return stop and do you have a return spring on the the slave cylinder and just one more does the pedaal pump up on the second pump
