Clutch wont bleed

[ERIC02]

Hi everybody, just finishing up my M20 swap and cant get the clutch to bleed. I am getting fluid to the master but none past and the pedal when its pressed just falls to the floor. The master was installed a month or two before i bought the car by the previous owner and worked properly before. But I have had the pedal box out for over a year. i have used the search function and i am not missing anything. i am stumped! Iknow its probably something simple but any advice would help thanks in advance.

need a pressure bleeder from the top res.

or

an oil can 'pressure bleeder' from the bottom bleeder

pedal method won't do it

do a "search" - millions of discussions about it

yep, what cd said.

it would help if you would describe exactly the bleed method you are attempting.

The same happened to me and here's what I did.. Let it sit with the reservoir cap off over night.. should have full pedal in the morning (the bubbles go out on their own).. found this out after i had my car towed home at 2am.. Bled and bled for hours, then had to get it towed, got in it in the morningm and have been driving it since.

Thats my experience..

Thanks for the help, and sorry about that. I have tried normal bleeding, and the bleeding screw open ( but not overnight just for an hour or so) so I think I will turn the wifes pressure sprayer into my new bleeder
