Find a buddy to help out.

Get a 8mm wrench and get under the car. Right at the back of the tranny bell housing where the starter is. You will see the clutch slave cylinder. It has a small nipple that maybe covered by a rubber boot and it has a small 8mm nut on it. Basically you get someone to pump up the clutch till it gets very stiff. Tell them to hold it down, then open the nipple with the 8mm wrench . Let the air bubbles and fluid rush out. When its just straight fluid (about maybe 5 seconds were are talking) Then close the nipple back off. The clutch peddle will drop to the floor as you do this. Repeat that process untill you get no more air bubbles and the clutch has a consistant resistance on it when you step on it. (Until you dont have to pump it for it to be stiff)



Good luck

thank you

Make sure the clutch fork has engaged the release collar before you go and push that clutch pedal. If not, the rod will fall out in the bell housing, and the slave piston will shoot out and make a big mess of fluid everywhere.

it is just like bleeding the brakes........You might have to use your hand to pull up the pedal. pump,pump,pump,pump-hold. Friend opens the bleeder port, fluid and air will come out. Pedal will drop back down. Repeat over and over, make sure the brake fluid is full.
