Try bleeding it a little different w/ the 2 man old method.
Open bleeder first have the helper push pedal down & then close the bleeder before the fluid stream stops.
Repeat this mulitple times while keeping the reservoir up on fluid.
Otherwise if it persists & it is a new clutch install, there might be a problem with your clutch set up unable to disengage.
