Transmission problem
Ford F150 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual 175000 miles

THIS TRUCK IS GIVING ME A HEADACHE!!!!!! I HAVE ALREADY PULLED THE TRANS AND REPLACED THE SLAVE CYLINDER, REPLACED THE CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER, AND ALL I HAVE LEFT IS TO BLEED IT RIGHT? SOUNDS SIMPLE ENOGH BUT ITS GOT A LEAK WHERE THE LINE HOOKS INTO THE BOTTOM OF THE MASTER CYLINDER, I WAS WONDERING IF THERE ANY OTHER ROUTE OTHER THAN KEEP REPOSITIONING THE LINE AND CHANGING THE O RING. WHEN I PUSH THE CLUTCH, AFTER I GOT IT ALL BLED I COULD HEAR IT HISSING FROM THAT AREA.......PLEASE HELP

The "hissing" you're hearing, I'm assuming that's fluid leaking. Not knowing what year your truck is, I can only guess at your solution. It you have the plastic line going down to the slave, can you shorten it up enough to get a new bite with the "O" ring?
