Subject:Pressure Bleeding the Clutch slave/master
From:Jeff Oxroad
Date:Mon, 23 May 2005 03:00:03 EDT

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 bleeder
for $6 (this is basically a cup and a hose).

Best,
Jeff
