1994 Saturn SC1 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual

I just replaced the master cylinder, I've been trying to put pressure back in the clutch system, bought a vaccume pump for the job. No matter what I do I cant get pressure in the system, the pedal is completely loose. I've tried it with the cap on and off, constantly refillling it. Air never seems to stop coming out but cant find any leaks.

Alot of people have had that same problem when trying to just replace ethier the clutch master or slave cyclinder I would just purchase the clutch master/slave assembley there like 75 aftermarket Saturn only sells them as a assembley I belive why is because of the difficulty in bleeding them all the other model saturns that use clutchs there available seperately.I have worked for Saturn for over 16yrs and whenever people have called up the dealer with the same problem I have told them to replace it as a assembley.I ussually see the slave go bad and the clutch master always seems to be empty of fluid. See if maybe the store will take back the master and u can trade it in on a assembley. Let me know how it goes that's my best advice for u that's what I would do.
