BY FAR the easiest way to bleed the clutch line if you don't have a power bleeder (Or Motive, or....) is to get things bled as well as you can with the nipple at the slave cylinder, and THEN BLEED THE SOFT LINE AT THE UPPER CONNECTION.

What happens is that there is air trapped in the relatively large diameter rubber hose, and pumping the clutch does not displace enough volume to move the air bubble. Just crack open the soft line at its upper connection when the clutch is depressed, and within a couple of strokes you will have it bled.





Good luck, Keith
