John Summers --- I'm coming in late on this one and you could've already so=
lved the issue of not getting full clutch release. Even so, I'll tell you a=
sure-fire way of bleeding the system.=C2=A0Assume first of all that the bl=
eed nipple is uppermost when the SC is bolted to the engine back plate.=C2=
=A0
Connect a length of clear plastic tubing (sometimes referred to as surgical=
tubing) to the bleed nipple.=C2=A0
Remove the cap on the CMC reservoir so you can observe the fluid level. Top=
it up before and during as necessary, before proceeding.
Run the open end of this tubing up to the top and into the reservoir, holdi=
ng it place with a clip, wire, or whatever is handy.=C2=A0
Open the bleed nipple about a half turn.=C2=A0
As you work the clutch pedal (with your right foot) while standing outside =
the door, you'll be able to see the fluid and any air bubbles come up the t=
ube as it goes back into the reservoir. Any air bubbles will find their way=
out as the fluid goes back down the pipe to the SC.
Do this stroking enough times to be sure all the air is expelled. No fluid =
is being "wasted" so pump away!=C2=A0
Close off the bleed nipple and check for pedal firmness. Pinch off the tubi=
ng at the bottom and top to keep from making a mess, and remove the tubing.=
=C2=A0
If your problem wasn't air in the system, let us know what you found!=C2=A0
