Ok, I've read up on previous threads, but am not quite clear on how this is done so wanted to re-engage folks here...
I was going to bleed the clutch fluid for the first time this past week. Figuring there was a bleeder valve somewhere by the slave cylinder, I get under the car but found nothing except a fluid line that disappears into the bell housing/tranny. I've looked everywhere, and don't see any way to bleed the system without tearing stuff apart. I've read the thread that talks about sucking the fluid out of the reservoir, but have my doubts as to whether or not you're actually getting all the old fluid out. However, I don't see any other way.
So can anyone shed some light on this subject? If I am to do this via the reservoir, should I be putting the cap on every time I pump the clutch several times, or can I leave it open? Has anyone else been successful doing it any other way?
Thanks!
