Default Need help with clutch bleed for Z06!

Pulled clutch to repl pilot bearing. When I went to bleed clutch, there is no pressure when pushing the pedal, some air comes out the remote bleeder, but pedal does not build pressure(even after 10 mins of pumping) and no fluid leaves resevoir. Pedal was working OK until I cracked remote bleeder to bleed. Did I mess something up? Clutch was working until I went to do final bleed. Thoughts?

I had this same problem when i threw in a new clutch and hydraulics. I spent a good hour bleeding it before i fnally got it. I started my car because it was really cold to kinda heat everything up. I then would crack the bleeder, push pedal slowly to the floor, close the bleeder and very slowly pull the pedal back up. Just keep repeating that and eventually u will get a pedal. Just make sure u go very very slowly when pressing and pulling the pedal and make sure to go clear to the floor and clear back up. good luck
