Uh, don't you mean you pressure bleed the clutch?

I've generally pressure bled it to clear out the line from the  
reservoir, and then do a mixture of "push the clutch in then have  
someone open the valve" and "open the valve and then push the clutch  
in" to clear out both cylinders.  I then finish with the pressure  
bleeder to get rid of any air.
