New clutch master cylinder not accepting fluid from the reservoir...

Just purchased a new clutch master cylinder. I believe it's attached to the pedal properly, but the fluid isn't traveling from the reservoir and filling up the master cylinder.

Anyone ever had this happen?

Check that the line isn't kinked or clogged

Ended up being a clamp that I lost and didn't replace on the line going from the clutch fluid reservoir to the master cylinder. I replaced it with another clamp and was able to gravity bleed the system pretty easily after that.
