Default clutch pressure issue

ok so the boot on my slave blew out. i rebuilt it and installed it. bled all the air out and no pressure. then realized i had a leak from the clutch master cylinder so i rebuilt it. still nothing. so i replaced it. bled it out again and still no pressure. i see no leaks and get nothing but fluid from the valve. im so confused lol and it is starting to get depressing. ive gone through four bottles of brake fluid. any advice and help is greatly appreciated. thank you

Just to clarify, you have a rebuilt slave and new clutch master... and with no air in the system, still can't get clutch pressure.

Umm, well... I always use a pressure bleeder and have to really open the slave bleeder so there is a good volume flow to carry out that first big bubble of air. Even after that, sometimes it takes a few stomps on the pedal to get the last of the air out....Bruce

If its any consolation, its worse on a 928.

Definitely, use a power bleeder. Harbor Freight or most auto parts stores have them and they're not too expensive. Also check Vertex Auto.
