yeah it takes alot of bleeding to get the clutch right, i suck my resevior down and refill it with fresh fluid all the time and after a while i flush the whole system and rebleed. gotta keep the fluid clean. you could still have some air in your system. when i had some air in my system the clutch didnt disengage well on the 1-2 shift after hard launches. it still will do that with clean fluid and a good bleed but not anywhere near as bad.

do the drill mod to the clutch line if you havent already, that will make a big difference.

I did the drill mod like u said it still did it but not nearly as bad. Ill try running brand new fluid and see if it makes it. Also I do have that tick bleeder it's a great thing to have. Don put that on when he did my clutch

check the fluid once a week, it doesnt take long to turn dark, keep it fresh. brake fluid absorbs moisture like a mofo which lowers the boiling temp considerably and water also does not work good as a hydraulic fluid lol.

and one thing people forget to mention or realize some times is that our reservoir isnt on the master for the clutch. it has a hose between them. if that hose has ANY kind of leak even if it looks just slightly damp it will be a path to moisture. and the fluid will soak it right up. make sure its clean and tight!

Ill clean and make sure it has fresh fluid all the time. A dot 4 might be best with the higher boiling point. Glad it was clean enough to get me out of the hole fast enough not to get hit by that Nova haha
