Re: [DML] Bleeding clutch fluid

["robert parker" <roberthparker@xxxx>]

If you can obtain a good length of oxygen tubing, the end will fit quite 
nicely over all the hydraulic system's bleeder fittings. This allows a 
"one-man" bleed job to be performed. Bleed well! Drive Stainless

Dear list members,

I'm getting ready to refill and bleed my hydraulic clutch fluid. I'm doing 
this because my clutch was not relasing and I found my fluid reservoir empty 
but no signs on the garage floor of leakage. As I understand the procedure, 
I am to attach a hose to the fitting on the slave cylinder on top of the 
transmission bell housing. If this is correct, does anyone know the inside 
diameter of the hose to use for this bleeding operation? If this is not the 
correct procedure, would someone please tell me what the correct procedure 
is? If this is the correct procedure, can I do this procedure by myself by 
simply putting the end of the bleeder hose in a container with DOT #4 fluid 
and pumping the clutch pedal myself after filling the reservoir inside the 
front storage compartment near the gas filler pipe?


I thank whoever responds for your help.

VIN 6467 as of 2/12/01
