So I've given up trying to bleed the clutch.

I did manage to fit this new little bracket which holds clutch pipe to top of diff cover.

I don't like giving up. So will have another bash today.

The problem I'm having is the easy bleed kit isn't sealing well with the fluid reservoir on the master cylinder.

First it.was just too tall. I fixed this by adding another rubber seal type washer inside.

Now their cap only tightens so far before the thread clicks and goes loose. So I think its jumping the thread.

My plan today is to bolster the thread with some form of tape. Just to get the threads to grip better and not jump.

Failing that I think the kit provides a clamp to clamp their cap onto the reservoir.

So I have a couple of tricks to try. Otherwise it's a trailer away job to the professionals.
