If the cylinder walls are damaged (from particles in the fluid, for example), the rebuild kit won't do you any good. Also, if you don't release bleed pressure before pumping the pedal, it will often damage the nice new seals you worked so hard to replace.
Tap the clutch hose with a wrench, especially where it makes those sharp bends, to release any air bubbles that may be stuck in the corners.
Bleeding sucks. My fluid is old and kinda dark, but I refuse to change it until a component fails because it's so damn frustrating pushing every last bubble from the lines. Even with the Motiv Power Bleeder, which I love dearly. Things also have a habit of breaking when you attempt routine maintenance.
