Message To get an opinion.

My car is complete minus my clutch being bled (and oil pump primed). Has Z1 one piece SS clutch line

I attempted to bleed the clutch but can't get it to improve. Never had an issue before but never bled a vacuum assisted clutch.

So it has light resistance the first 3/4 of travel, then it feel the clutch disengaging, but just the last little bit. Not enough to fully disengage.

I bled it several times and it never improved, including manually bleeding the slave itself (compressing it to ensure no air).

I can see the slave pushing the fork. It rests against it disengaged, pushed out maybe a little less than an inch. The slave piston feels pretty loose inside the cylinder, which may be a sign it's shot?

Also, when I open the bleed screw without pressing the pedal (reservoir open) the fluid flows out and empties the reservoir, although I don't know if that is normal or not either.

So, any ideas? I figure either:
-needs more bleeding?
-bad master
-bad slave
-both?
