    slace? .. slave cylinder? clutch?



    eh, take a small 1 foot hose and stick it on the nipple on the slave cyl. and open the nipple up a lil, and stick the other end in a cup full of brake fluid, making sure that the end stays submerged. and then, just pump away until you feel like it has straight clean fluid in it then close the nipple.


    ive been doing this method for years and it works perfect everytime, no need for buggin a friend or a expensive shop tool ( although it would help )

    its not for the brakes. the brake lines look pretty clean. nothing in the fluid or anything. just the reservoir for the slave cylinder. but i will have to look into getting that and see how it works.

    it will work for clutch lines also. by no means is it the cheapest route but it is the fastest. an in a shop environment pays for it self in time saved.

    Pick up a Motive brake bleeder if you are going to flush/fill/bleed the brakes reguarly. You piur the brake fluid into the Motive container, hook it to the master cylinder, pressurize it with the hand pump and open the bleed screw. Done flushing in no time flat with no air in the lines.

    One of the best tools I've ever owned to make a tedious job simple.
