Well its been a rough few weeks, but its running and sounds good! PROBLEM,Dont burn me on this, I saw it here a few weeks ago but I cant find that thread. The clutch pedal wont come up. In the past when the fluid is low, it doesnt come up, but you have to try and put it down, but this time its like something is pulling the pedal down, so, What do I do? Sorry if this has been answered a million times.

Theres an overcenter spring in there that once you go past halfway helps you push it further down, so if your system has air in it its going to pull it to the floor. Open up the bleeder on the transmission and fill the reservoir until fluid starts coming out the bleeder, push and pull the pedal to help it if you need to, then close the valve and bleed it like you would with brakes.

Thanks very much! I think that may be it, initially, you do have to push, but then it hits aa certain point, and all of a sudden it pulls down, I'm going to try that.
