if by wont disingauge you mean lift off the flywheel at all? then there is a broken line/no fluid/ air in the line
or if you mean it wont seat back onto the flywheel then it could be broken fingers on the pp/rusted input shaft causing the throwout bearing to get hung up.
bleeding is the same as brakes, use a piece of clear vac hose over the bleeder, i find it makes it a lot easier to keep air out if your helper lets off the petal cuz they cant follow directions.

Ya the rangers and explorers need bleed goofy. You have to open the bleeder then slowly push the pedal down then close the bleeder and pull the pedal back up. Its best to reverse bleed them though cause its a pain in the ***. I had lots of trouble on the 91 explore i put a tranny in for someone.

well this truck doesnt leak anything and i guess everything looked fine when my friend took a look.. hes so pissed hes gonna change out the tranny for a c5? c4? c10? idk im not familiar with the tranny names
i guess ill give that a try.. one last shot..
i thought reverse bleed wouldnt work cause u can get a seal arround the bleeder? ---- if i know
