you can minimize air intro by, and yes this can get messy
-have rags under the hose to catch any spillage
-have a helper depress the clutch pedal and brake pedal simultanously
-replace the hose and use new clamps, leave bottom clamp loose
-make sure res is full and loosen lower clamp and let fluid gravity drain out the bottom of the hose to get the air out, dont let the res go empty!
tighten and release the pedals

my theory behind this is that the return stroke of the pedals will force back any residual air into the res where it can escape

also a nice time to go to the super blue fluid with a brake system flush....
