Re: Bleeding the clutch

["Robert Rooney" <dmcvegas@xxxx>]

Before you start to bleed the clutch, what exactly is the problem 
that you're having with it? If when you shift gears and the tranny 
grinds it could mean one of the following things: contaminated DOT 4, 
air in the lines, plastic clutch line expanding, shift linkage needs 
adujstment, or maybe something else. But if you do need to, 
instructions can be found on page E:06:01 of the Workshop Manual. The 
bleeder screw itself is located on the side of slave cylinder on the 
passenger side of the car. A picture of it can be found on page 4:4:1 
of the Parts Manual. Just be sure that you don't pour used brake 
fluid that you bleed out back into the reservoir to fill the system 
up. And of course make sure the engine has had time to cool down 
since your hands will only be a few inches from the front exhaust 
pipe and the engine block itself. Other then that it's a pretty 
straight forward procedure.
