just a quick question,  why are you bleeding it?  i had the same problems when i tried bleeding it after doing a clutch conversion,  let me know if this is what youve done as youve more than lightly been supplied the wrong clutch as i did.

i got a organic clutch conversion on ebay with a solid flywhel , but does the clutch pedal have to be up for me to bleed it ? or is it ok to leave it down to floor

has the pedal collpapsed?

was the clutch pedal ok before you changed the clutch? the cylinder should reset itself, unless the clutch fork is bent or not fitted properly

cant bleed clutch when its on the floor, try and pull the clutch arm with your hand, does it move? does the cylinder push out to reach it

all is fine i think , at the moment i can move it by hand its really easy , but at the end of travel you can feel that its trying to push the slave cylinder , if you know what i mean , but when i tryed bleeding it the pedal was on the floor im not sure if thats the problem or not

you mean you can hand move the clutch arm? or you on about the pedal?

pedals on a spring so should raise ok, but if you can push clutch arm easily then summits wrong
