We've bled this thing like 6 fucking times. First time, wasn't doing it right, then master cyl was busted, then the slave cyl was busted, then we broke the line. Now? The little metal rod that fits inside the boot on the slave cylinder just pushed itself out the boot. There's a TON of pressure behind it so I can't just push it back in, what are we doing wrong? Clutch is down, open the valve on the slave cyl and let the fluid and air out, then close it. Pump the pedal (up, then down again) and repeat, that's right isn't it? Also, the part on the tranny that looks like it's supposed to push the little rod on the slave cylinder in isn't moving, is it supposed to push the rod and boot on the slave cylinder in?
