Clutch bleed help

I have a 93 with a zf5 and just replaced the slave cylinder, i believe the air is out of the lines but the clutch wont fully disengage. going from gear to gear works with out the clutch and sometimes double clutching will get it in. not sure where to go from here probably gonna flush it and bleed again in the morning. any suggestions?

its gonna be a two person job thats for sure and with the hydrallics all you can do is make sure you got the air out of the system and just pump and pump and pump and pump and pump and pump and pump really about it. This or there is a way to adjust the rod on the master pump it will give it a longer stroke and put more to the slave all you should have to do it look up under the dash and find the arm to it and see if it has threads on it. if it does let the part that has the O on it out some hook it back up and then try it see if its where you want it or pump it some more and just continue adjusting it from there
