having trouble bleeding the clutch
I have installed a new clutch flywheel and braided clutch line and i cant seem to get any pressure out of it. It moves very little but not enough to move the clutch fork, the pedal also gets stuck to the floor. Any tricks or techniques?
Did you search this forum and run across this?

Yeah I have read that. I have tried the old oil pump technique no air has come out. I have bled it for more than a hour by pumping the pedal and still nothing. Should I just keep at it? Maybe it takes longer?
I recently bled my clutch fluid (stock clutch) and it took me about 15 minutes. That was with me on the floor working the valve and the wifey pressing the pedal.
edit: davids link above shows that it could take longer. I was just replacing old fluid so had no bubbles, thereby faster.

Well, the fact that you have some movement at the slave is good. Make sure whoever is pumping the pedal for you is doing so nice and slow, all the way from top to bottom. Just keep at it and it should get better. Make sure the master cylinder doesn't go dry otherwise you'll just have to start all over.
get a turkey injector and take the tip off and connect a peice of hose to it, fill it with clutch fluid, then connect the hose to an open bleeder valve, push the fluid in, close the bleeder valve, bleed as normal, rinse and repeat till you have pedal pressure again.
