Subject:Clutch adjustment/bleeding/whatnot?

Well, I'm fed up with the 80-82 Bentley....:)

Heres the problem:  clutch is out of adjustment.  At least, if it had a
cable, that's what I'd say.  I dunno a damn thing about hydrolic clutch
systems (ok, other than the fact that they have a master and slave, blah
de blah...) and the Bentley is useless it seems, in this regard.  All it
tells me is how to add fluid, and that the clutch must be bled with a
pressure bleeder.

sooo....How would one go about adjusting the play in these things?  (about
2 inches of pedal play...and makes getting into gear a bear....

Anybody have any suggestions here, I'd appreciate it...
