Denis,
The hydraulic circuit needs to be bled. It is tricky, and needs to be force bled from both sides sometimes. It helps to have an assistant to depress the clutch pedal while fresh air free fluid is forced through the circuit - sometimes needs to be done in reverse from the nipple at the slave. Once the air is out, the assistant can slowly let the peddle up while fluid being forced through the system and this will draw air free fluid into the Cylinder.
Trial and error and repeat this process until you get it air free. Experience helps. Don't overpressureize, just want to keep the air out while bleeding. Think and understand how the system works, then develop a procedure to bleed.
I've probably dont this before, so may be in archives.
I don't think you'll have to pull tranny again, this time.

When i swaped all mecanics from 5000TQ to 100Q body, everything seems to work good . No. i putted the clutch fork on wrong side ,,,,shi....t. , the clutch stay in half slip position , AND a spring felt down on te ground before i put back the tranny covers(reverse spring). Then no back speed.
I remove the tranny AND all stuff around , i fixed the tranny, now it shift at all speed AND reverse too.
BUT now it still engage , the clutch does not want to unengage !!!! it still now engage what ever i push it.The slave cylinder seems to works good but it seems to not push the clutch enought !!!! maybe still air in the cylinder
When the engine is running and the clutch doesnot want to unengage then it s sure not possible to get in 1 or 2 or else it s like i dont push the clutch.
What the problem now ??? all i can see it s still air in the circuit.
I m very sick of it and tired to remove again the tranny...
