wow i finally got the pressure i wanted...after having my bro push the clutch, me opening the screw, closing it, and him releasing the clutch...after 30-40 minutes and 6 or 7 bottles of dot3 brake fluid.

call me a retard but there had to have been an easier way...we just saw progress and kept doing what we were doing...

i havent test driven it yet because when i started it up the headers started to smoke, i got brake fluid on parts and didnt really think it was too safe to drive it.

anything i should look for when im driving it to make sure all the air is out of the system?
