Ok, this is getting ridiculous... like everybody who has ever tried to bleed a W123 clutch, I'm still having problems. I've got bottom end pressure bleeder setup made from a garden sprayer and a peanut butter jar half-filled with brake fluid. I literally can't force fluid into the system. First I put the shorter master cylinder push rod on in place of the longer one I had originally. When that didn't work I took the rid off completely; still no joy!

In desperation I undid the pressure line connection at the master cylinder - now there is just the slave cylinder and the hard line, and fluid still won't go into it! Is it possible I have a bad slave cylinder?!?
