every time i've bled a clutch, i've had to let it sit a few hours before bleeding after i connected everything because somehow a gigantic air bubble gets in my system and pumping the pedal does something.

after i let it sit a while though, it takes me 7-10 times of bleeding the clutch before it's got all the air out - and i never lose any fluid.

so the actual bleeding process is simple and nearly timeless, but for some reason i have to wait to do this for a couple of hours. i suppose this method would allow me to skip that in between time, which would be nice.
