Re: whats the right way to bleed clutch
taking a hose from the bleeder screw and submerging the end in a little bit of brake fluid will show you whether you still have air in the lines i.e bubbles will come out of the hose with the old fluid. make sure you check the level in the reservoir every couple times

Make sure brake fluid is full, pump clutch 5-10 times, hold it down, loosen the nipple then tighten. Repeat that 5-10 times. Submerging makes things precise but you don't really have to do it and it shouldn't effect your clutch as much as you are saying.
