bleeding clutch actuator

[dougkirkbride]

finally got my brake and clutch lines run. brakes bleed. hard pedal yea! got clutch lines run and mounted to clutch actuator, reattached clutch pedal linkage, filled with fluid, but nothing. reservoir filled but wont go thru lines even with the bleed valve open. probably something i totally overlooked but i cant seem to get anything to get the fluid to flow. anyone else attempt to bleed clutch actuator with the unit off the transmission, dangling from the hose? dont see why that should matter.

I am pumping air, but fluid level is not dissipating in reservoir, maybe i have an air lock?
