Bleeding the Clutch

Ok im doing 5 speed swap...

im having problems with bleeding the damn clutch line.... basically what is happening is that i dont get a lot of clutch pressure.. it barely comes up all the way up ( pedal)...

iv bleed for like 2 hours and noting.... there are no air bubble coming out of the lines anymore.. WTF...


is there a trick to this or what... cuz iv bleed tons of clutch lines before and NEVER had the same problem like i alway seem to have with the maxima....

You do have enough brake fluid in there right?

And someone is pumping the clutch while the other person is at the bleeder valve?

Well then you also know that there are two bleed points on the stock setup? If you had a SS line this would be much easier, but if you're stock then you have got to bleed it atboth points, IIRC the bottom first...
