Bleedin clutch :)

[davidd]

As you may be aware I decided to bleed the clutch...

Flushed out the old manky stuff, lots of air and lots of grubbiness.

Shoved an ezi bleed on and 1 and a half litres of fluid later and it is just starting to get pressure. I have run out of fluid and cannot be arsed to go and get any now. However I'm a little worried it might be pissing into the bellhousing from the slave.
How much fluid should it take?

Help!

not that much, when i did mine about a month ago it only used about a litre. Check to make sure you have the thicker seal from the ezibleed kit on your clutch resovoir otherwise it will pump fluid out and down into your drivers footwell,(check under the carpet)and dont forget you only need about 12-15 pounds of pressure.Best of luck.

Hmm, I did check under the carpet and found none under there. Maybe I just need a little more.

Now I see it

so I have a nice pool of fluid on the floor!

Anyway with a little help I managed to get some pressure back, I still think there might be some air in there but I can start the car and get gears whilst stationary. I'll clean it all up tonight and reseal the bulkhead etc. Hopefully that will be it for a while (hmmm)
