I've bled this and bled that but I'll be damned if I can bleed this Rev3 clutch. Even followed the instructions (which didn't suggest anything out of the ordinary). So, is there a trick to this? Thanks.

try bleeding the master cylinder first loosen the banjo bolt,sqeeze lever whilst in tighten bolt,repeat few times.

Will give that a shot tonight! Thanks!!

maybe the slave cylinder had a bubble in it?

Actually, had enough air in it to fill a balloon. Got home too late to accomplish anything last night. Will start over and bench bleed the MC and go from there. Thanks!

Suppose I should have mentioned this is the Gremica mc ('05-on).

bleed it from the bottom up with a syringe and a little bit of hose between the syringe and the nipple .done mine last week in about 2mins

Went and picked up a big horse-sized syringe and some better fitting clear tubing this afternoon. Thanks!

Oh crap. Perhaps I did this wrong. Hopefully someone here has installed a Grimaca clutch master cylinder seal kit and can help. When I installed the new kit, I did it the same way I found it. Was looking at a PDF file just now that seems to suggest the way I did it is wrong. Specifically, I'm talking about the small cup like seal towards the end of the piston (not the "O" ring): Does the open (cup part) go on so its facing the hose (to the right) or to the left? Hope that makes sense. I have it so the cup (or perhaps better called the larger flared end) is facing the hose end instead of facing to the left (clutch lever plunger end). That makes the most sense (would apply pressure when needed and allow fluid to blow by from the res (when needed) when the clutch lever is released. Again, the pdf image seems to suggest otherwise, so any words of comfort or solace would be appreciated. Thanks.

Got it! Banjo washers were not up to snuff. I have a clutch again.
