I replaced the clutch and have everything installed and no extra bolts. That is how my wife determines if I did a good job. I topped off the clutch master. I also installed a new fork. The clutch pedal goes to the floor and stays there. I am not dripping fluid. Where to go from here?

Check that you hung the slave cylinder on the side of the transmission

But also, having the slave off you may have gotten some air in it too. Try bleeding it.

Yeah, you just need to bleed it. But for good measure, make sure the little rod that goes between the fork and the slave cylinder is in position.

The slave cylinder is properly mounted with the rod in place. I was able to bleed some air out. The pedal now returns. It is easier to press down which I believe is based on the pressure plate. I still feel it should have more stroke. What is proper way to bleed the clutch since the slave is so much lower than the master?
