What to do when bubbles come out of clutch?

Do as many rounds of bleeding the clutch as necessary for the bubbles to stop coming out of the hose. If bubbles continue to appear no matter how much you bleed the system, there may be a leak somewhere in the lines or at the master cylinder. Once the bubbles stop coming you can seal the bleed screw and place the cap back on the reservoir.
