jam the pedal down to the floor, loosen the cap and leave overnight. |

shares fluid with the brakes, its not sealed as far as I remember.
Should be a bleed nipple ontop of the box under the airbox. |

get someone in the car to slowly press the clutch and release the union slightly, should weep fluid only, air is bad. Make sure they don't release the pedal till you tighten it again. |
