Clutch Question

I had a reasonable amount of slave cylinder travel, about 1/2 inch. Took the slave cylinder and pushed the rod into the slave cylinder, the rod moved about an inch and now I have no clutch, I assume there is air in the system.

Do you agree?

Did you pump it a few times before you determined that something is wrong? Maybe you just need the fluid to push the cylinder out before you try to fix too much.

Yes, I did, the weird thing is all summer there was some clutch. Just pushing it the rod in and then nothing, but yes, I did pump the clutch.
