how would i get the air out of it
1. Get a buddy to help
2. Remove clutch reservoir cap
3. Top off fluid
3. Pump clutch pedal 3-4 times, last pump, hold pedal to the floor, or as far down as it'll go
4. Have helper crack the valve open a little. Air and fluid should shoot out, so make sure it's collected and not spraying everywhere. It WILL EAT PAINT.
4a. MAKE SURE PEDAL IS NOT LIFTED AT ALL. Pedal should continue to the floor and HELD THERE.
5. Tighten the bleeder.
6. Go to step 3, repeat as necessary.
NOTE: Keep a close eye on the fluid level in the reservoir. NEVER let it get too low.
Hope that helps.

Things to look at before going through a bleed would be:
Leaks (visible fluid on things in and around the clutch components)
Slave cylinder
The ball and socket that attaches the rod to the clutch fork. look for damage, being worn, etc.
The fork and rod themselves.
Spring.
Just a general check before you go through a bleeding process.

you can check the slave cylinder by simply observing it to push the fork. It is located near the starter on the driver side close to the firewall.
I suspect the throw out bearing let go.

any bet its the clutch disk is worn down too far? happended to mine, thought my throwout bearing was bad, it was the pressure plate and clutch dish were worn down and had chunks missing, that would explain the crazy noise when u press the clutch when its running. here are my pics of what happened
