Air just in the master can be bled with the 50 pumps method that Karl mentioned. Recent example: a buddy wrecked his 90na that was running well. Front end shoved way in. It sat for several weeks before I started on it. Replaced the smashed distributor cap and radiator. Went to start it and the clutch and right to the floor. No clutch. Looked all over for damage to the hose or leakage. Nothing. Looked in the master and the fluid level was low-way below the clutch master intake. Added fluid. Pumped the pedal about 150 times and finally the pedal came back up. You could see the bubbles coming up in the master cylinder resevoir (had a friend helping) through the pumping. Clutch is fine now though 50 miles of driving.
