The main cylinder is moving not the slave. No movement from the slave
cylinder. I assume this is air????

When you say "the cylinder and it is moving" do you mean the master or the
slave? When correctly bled you should get around 1/2" of movement of the
slave piston. I can't really see how you could be getting this as well as
no resistance, but if you are you have problems inside the bellhousing.
If the slave piston travel is less than this it probably just needs
bleeding. After reading many tales of woe as to how difficult this is by
conventional means I opted for the reverse approach, and filled my system
using a Gunsons EeziBleed on very low pressure connected to the slave
nipple. Doing it this way I immediately had full travel with no bleeding
required.
