Listers,
   So the clutch in the 80Q has been soft lately so I thought a bleed
with fresh fluid would restore it's function. Well I hook up the
pressure bleeder, get it all pumped up to 20psi, put clear tube on
bleeder screw, open bleeder and nothing happens. Not a single drop
comes  out. What the???!!! Then I push the clutch pedal down with the
bleeder open it goes to the floor and stays. Now I check the bleeder
tube and it's full brown mud and air, good, bleeder not clogged. Return
the pedal by hand and still no flow at the bleeder. So I close the
bleeder and try the clutch, dead straight to the floor and stays.
   The system is full air and will not bleed, what gives?  Clogged/dead
clutch master or clogged supply hose?
  Thanks for all responses,

John
