How do you clutch bleed?

One person in the cab to work the clutch pedal.

One person underneath the car, rt side of transmission, with small hose on bleed nipple - other end into brake fluid bottle, and box wrench on the nipple.

Ck reservoir for fluid. Don't do more than 4 cycles without refilling the reservoir. Go more -- you're pumping air...

Can't get the nipple open? Unbolt the whole thing - called a the slave cylinder - and replace it. They are 20$ at Advance or Autozone...

Procedure:

Person in cab presses on clutch pedal to floor. Open bleed nipple and allow any fluid that comes out to flow into the open brake fluid container.

Tighten bleed nipple, tell person in cab to release pedal.

Repeat process until only fluid comes out on each pedal press with no air bubbles...

Pedal should now have pressure and work the clutch correctly...
