    Default Quick ?- Bleeding Slave Cylinder (del Sol / b16)

    Bleeding the slave cylinder is no different than bleeding the brakes right?

    Loosen, press clutch, tighten, release clutch - repeat. correct?

    I will not bleed very well that way. Best bet is to put a hose on it and run the hose into a half full bottle of fluid. Then fill the resevoir and pump the clutch slowly with the bleeder screw open.

    I pump the clutch in between. Not just press. More like pump and hold
