IMO,

- Pump the clutch to build up pressure. Pump it a LOT (like 90 seconds straight)
- Pop bleeder valve, let air/fluid out, close as pressure drops
- Keep an eye on reservoir, make sure it stays full
- Repeat until clutch is firm

definitely much easier w/two people
This is how I initially started to do it (and have done it in the past on brakes). However after about an hour of doing this my arms were jello and I gave up and went onto trying things like a vac bleeder, which also did not work.

You know I did not, that will be the first thing I do when I get home from work today.

Thanks for the suggestions/help thus far.
