I used that method quite a bit and finally got it down so it was dependable. I Put hose clamps on both ends of the clear hose, opening both bleeders (box end wrenches on both slave nipples) then from outside the car pumped the brake pedal by hand like crazy, crawl back under, shut bleeders, if there no clutch repeat. Make sure the clutch pedal stays up. Is that more or less how you did it?
