Maybe the pushrod is supposed to put little to no pressure on the clutch master when the clutch pedal isn't pressed. I could cut down the longer black 'w126' pushrod to test this theory.

db:
Your first quote, above, is in conflict with your second. If you are not able to bleed from the bottom up, it is, as 97SL mentions, because the M/C piston is partially pushed down past the inlet port. The piston is down because there is
NO pedal free-play. Apparently the eccentric adjustment will not provide any free-play. Why? See the first quote, above.
