Hello...greeting from Chile

Can somebody help me pls.

I have a truck Dogde Dakota 2000 V6 w/90000 km and the hydraulic clutch system has been fail.
The system loss pressure, in other words is it become spongy.

I don't see any leak of fluid at the slave cylinder and check the level the master cylinder reservoir, and this is OK.

I have the next questions:

1.- Could you give some tips about how can i detect if the problem is the Master or Slave cylinder ??

2.-Could you recommended where I can find replacement (internet sites) for master and slave cylinder; I will preffer Miami or Florida state

3.-Also, If I can repairs the master or slave cylinder ?? for example replacement the oring.. Do you know if exits this kit I understand that this are named rebuilt kit

4.- which is the way to remove outside the system the air bubble ??

5.- What kind of fluid must to be use in this system (i dont have the service manual)

Tks for your help and sorry if my English is not good. My email is fdo_osorio@yahoo.com I will appreciate your help

The master and slave cylinder assenbly are a sealed unit. There are no bleeders on it, it is bled at the facory. You must replace the whole thing.

You need to listen to yourself talking here. No fluid or low fluid would mean a fluid leak. Spungy with no lose of fluid is a air leak. Either way You need to replace the intire unit, top to bottom . There is no way to bleed the unit. No rebuild kits either that I ever found. Now you could get new cups and rebuild both cylenders provided the cylenders are not wore beyond reasonable honing. Then build your own line with a blead right ontop of the slave cylender. It's not easy to bleed with this setup but it can be done IF you go slow . Really not worth all this trouble unless there is no possible way to get a new unit considering your location. I do not recommend doing it as I stated as I don't consider it the safe way to do it. I have done this on a Jeep cherokee with no problems over the long haul. But bleeding is a real pain. Use all good parts and lines should you be required to do this fix .
