Rev 4T Fork Oil

Now even though I've done this before I'm struggling with this -

I changed my fork seals last night and first off used 370cc of oil in the right leg but there was far too much to get the top nut back on. I pulled some out and went with 60mm down from the top of the leg when compressed, with the damper rod fully compressed, I could now get the nut back onto the damper rod and the top nut into the stanchion but..... if I do this with the stanchion pulled up it locks the fork up and if I do it with the leg compressed then it vacuums the leg and pulls it back down?????? 

I pumped the damper loads of times assuming it was air trapped but nothing was showing so I'm obviously making some kind of rookie mistake but what am I missing??

Gave up in the end, threw the toys out the pram and went inside  :o
