Subsequently I bought a new slave, my grandson and I installed it, bleed it and as we finished getting the bubbles out it locked up. I could not depress the clutch pedal to the floor. Thought maybe we did something wrong, pulled it put it back, same issue, replaced it with the old slave which I took apart and cleaned (full of gunk), same issue. I get about two thirds of the pedal depression and then it is not going any further.
What simiple step are we missing? Is the clutch master cyclinder blown and impacting the slave? I have a new clutch master sysclinder and was going to replace it as well but do not want to start it until I have the slave working correctly unless it is or could be the problem.

Not sure what is going on but a call to Bill Boudreau is in order. The slaves had a high failure rate out of the box. You May have done nothing wrong.
