ok i got the new T.O.B. (throw out bearing) on, only a few drops came out of the line, tried to bleed it but my clutch pedal feels very spongy, it might be due to the fact i have no clutch/pressure plate/engine in the car, so ill have to bleed it again when its all together.

thanks for the input guys
