Slave clutch cylinder problem

Looking to see if anyone has had this problem. Replaced the clutch and broke the slave clutch cylinder. Got a new one put it in and can’t get pressure to build back up. I can get the master cylinder to bleed but can get the slave to bleed. Only a super tiny bit of fluid comes out when pumping??

Fluid full? Make sure when you're releasing the clutch pedal that you tighten the beading bolt so that you don't suck air back into the line.

Sometimes it takes time. Try pumping 5 times slowly before opening the nipple. Close it again and then another 5 pumps. When you open the nipple the clutch pedal should be on the floor. Takes some co-ordination but it should come. If it’s still not working take the nipple out of the space and make sure it has the appropriate hole! A friend of mine found that one of the aftermarket slave cylinders he bought had a blocked bleed nipple.
