sounds like you got some air in the line.

when bleeding the clutch line makes sure you fill the reservoir up to the top lip. (way above the fill line like its gonna spill out) i read that trying to bleed the clutch line at the max reservoir level will not work properly

Bleeding the clutch line is not a difficult procedure, however, we even had some issues initially getting the one in the Evo 8 bled properly. Unlike most cars where you can simply begin the bleeding process and just add fluid to the brake fluid reservoir as needed during the process, the Evo 8 brake fluid reservoir must be "over filled" to even get started. Failure to do so can have you pumping nothing but air indefinitely...

push the clutch down once to the floor slowly hold it there and have someone crack the bleeder.forsaying your not leaking fluid, this is the way i did it worked. had to repeat it six times till the air was out

i used a clear tube and didnt have any problems

although if you didnt have a clear tube i would think air could still be in the line. cause how you gonna tell if all the air is out

a speed bleeder would be nice

it took me 3/4 of the damn break fluid bottle to get it bleed right
