AIR BLEEDING
The clutch hydraulic system must be bled to remove air introduced whenever a hydraulic line is disconnected.
CAUTION
Clutch fluid will damage painted surfaces. If clutch fluid does get on a painted surface, wipe it off immediately.
Air Bleeding
- 1Remove the bleeder cap from the clutch release cylinder and attach a vinyl hose to the bleeder plug.
- 2Insert the other end of the vinyl hose into a clear container.
- 3Working with another person, have the person depress the clutch pedal several times, then hold it down.
- 4With the clutch pedal depressed, loosen the bleeder screw by using the SST to let fluid and air escape. Close the bleeder screw.
- 5Repeat steps 3 and 4 until no air bubbles are seen. Make sure the reservoir is always 3/4 full or more during this procedure.
