Clutch hydraulic system - bleed
$%33.15.01
CAUTION: Ensure the fluid in the reservoir is
maintained between the minimum and maximum
levels throughout the bleed procedure using new
brake fluid.
CAUTION: Brake fluid will damage paint finished
surfaces. If spilled, immediately remove fluid and
clean area with water.
Bleeding
1. Top up reservoir.
2. Raise the front of the vehicle.
3. Connect tube to bleed screw on clutch slave
cylinder and submerge free end in a clear
container containing brake fluid.
4. Loosen bleed screw, then apply steady
pressure to the clutch pedal, depressing it
through its full stroke. Allow the pedal to return
unassisted.
5. Repeat the procedure until a flow of clean, air-free
fluid is purged into the container.
6. Hold the pedal to the floor and tighten the
clutch bleed screw to 9 Nm (7 lbf.ft).
7. Check and top up reservoir.
CAUTION: Never re-use fluid that has been
bled from the system.
8. Remove stands and lower the vehicle.
Hints: 1. Have much endurance and do it several times(I've done it for 20 min's). It's a 2 men job, one must look at the tube and tell the other one to allow the pedal to return just when all the bubbles are out of the tube in order to not suck back the air in the system.
2. Don't loosen the bleed screw too much cause it could get air beneath it.
Have fun

you will need to bleed master clyinder first by slackening clutch pipe while pressing pedal down and tightening before letting pedal up ,then bleed slave in same way or use bottle and pipe
