...So, I got my neighbors to give me a hand. Suddenly, car accepted gravity bleed! Then we actively bled by depressing the clutch. I think the car needed to sit untouched overnight, as now I have clutch!!! System did not leak overnight when I let it sit!!! I am hoping it is good, but I will stay on the lookout for a new master clutch to rebuild and keep on the side.
Car is idling (rough), and it stinks, but that might partially be poor distributer, poor timing, and poor carb adjustment. I am still wondering if the engine is burning oil. I flushed the oil and then added 10w30. I am considering swapping to 10w40 to see if that cleans up some of the exhaust.
Tomorrow I blast the engine bay with Simple Green and a pressure washer with hot water to see what's up under all the gunk. First however I will replace the boots and bleed the brakes.
I am beginning to feel happy. Now I await a firm reprimand from The Continuum.
