I have a problem with my clutch system, I recently replaced the entire clutch system, master cylinder, slave cylinder, clutch plate pressure plate and on. now, some how we can't get no pressure on the system, we bench bled the master cylinder and it's fine. Please help.

did you bleed the bleeder valve on the pass side under the hood?? Plenty of fluid?? Might have a leak somewhere??

did you install an aftermarket clutch? the higher-clamp-force aftermarket clutches and pressure plates can make the clutch booster fail faster, or push a sketchy one over the edge.

i'd also check the slave cylinder, look for pressure leaks there. the seals on the slave cylinder go pretty quickly, it's a $25 part, worth replacing as part of a clutch job.
