>> Will a mini-vac pump work to bleed air from the
clutch hydralic system after replacing master/slave
cylinder? The mini-vac in a suction pump for self
brake bleeding and the like which is pumped by hand.
Or does the system need to be pressure bled with a
pressure type pump attacted to the master cylinder
reservoir?
If it's the latter any suggestions for a place to get
one. Several FLAPS look at me like I'm nuts when I ask
and keep trying to sell me a one-man bleederfor $6
(this is basically a cup and a hose).

Jeff, the Bentley says you must use a pressure- or
vacuum-bleeder, but the Haynes claims you don't. I
used a vacuum-bleeder to great effect when replacing
my cylinders. You may find helpful my tech write-up on
the procedure:

If you want to build your own pressure-bleeder, as
mentioned by George Goff, check this out:

Good luck!
