Default after 1 1/2 hour cant get clutch to bleed????

OK so we just put a new textrilla in, new 01/02 slave in, did the drill mod and put a used 01/02 master cylinder out of my buddies 02 TA, I have a 99. Anyway, we have been trying to bleed this bitch for ever and were getting no where. The pedal is not getting any harder. The resevior is slowly...very slowly going down and were getting fluid out of the bleeder valve on the slave. We have pumped the pedeal for ever now and nothing is happening. Im lost and need some advice. Its a pretty small system so I dont see whats going wrong.

Am I loosing fluid from somewhere like I might have a hole or someting...maybe Im getting air in the system, maybe there is already air in the system that we just cant get out???? Im lost.

dude it took me 2 mins to bleed mine. i took a sprayer u use to put insect killer or lawn weed killer (i put liek 2 big bottles of brake fluide dot 3 in it ) and had 3 foot of line and i bought some fitting to put on a new slave cap. pump up the spray to get pressure then undo the bleeder valve and just let it all flow out for liek 2 mins or so
