Default clutch play

So I just recently changed my leaking clutch master cylinder and I bled the clutch fluid… however I feel like there’s still a bit of play when I press on the clutch. Is it possible there’s still air in the system? Or is there anything else I missed? Just an fyi, I recently got my clutch changed w oem pressure plate, oem disc, act streetlite flywheel, and I changed to the ap1 slave cylinder.

There could still be air, but might just be pedal freeplay adjustment needed.

If there is still air, best method to remove is gravity bleed:

Which method did you use? Gravity bleed method does not work well at all after replacing hydraulic components. Might work if youre just getting old fluid out

Use the 2 person method and your pedal feel will return to normal.

Yeah I just gravity bled, I basically used most of the bottle. It seems to be shifting fine just a little bit of play even with the push rod adjustment. I’ll def get it up again to do the 2 man bleed just to be sure.
