Clutch Hydraulic System: Service and Repair

CLUTCH BLEEDING

CAUTION:
Use the specified brake fluid. Do not mix brake fluid.

Specified fluid: Brake Fluid DOT 3 or DOT 4






1. Connect a hose with a bottle to the bleeder screw.
2. Open the bleed nipple.

CAUTION:
For bleeding, never "pump" the clutch pedal. This may cause an oil leak at the clutch cylinder.

3. Depress the clutch pedal slowly. Open the bleeder screw to let air and brake fluid out. Close the bleeder screw. Release the clutch pedal. Repeat until only brake fluid and no air comes out.
4. Check that the brake fluid reservoir level stays between "MAX" and "MIN" marks throughout the clutch bleeding process.
