Just like the title says... I think this is my problem, but I want to do it regardless.

Thanks.

Basicly if you are doing by your self, take a small hose similer to the hoses you would find on fish tanks. Go under the car to the slave cyclinder you will see a small metal piece sticking out should be on backside if I remeber right but it could be in front, basicly take that small hose and attach it the the nozzel, as shown in the picture it is that silver looking thing at the top right sticking out. Then relay the hose to a catch can of some kind dont matter what it is plastic cup, coffee can, any thing. You are going to have to turn it that metal piece and to open it, after you do that I took the cap off the master cyclinder. It should sit next to the brake fluid canister small and white, or if you engine is dirty like mine small and brownish white. Now get in the car and pump the clutch petal 3 times. Go to the hose / can and see if there is fluid in it, if there is close the nozzel if there is no fluid in the hose / can repeat till there is. Now close the metal piece not to tight but tight enough where no fluid well not leak out. After closing the nozzel pump the petal again to make sure it is closed. If it closed you are Good to go put the cap back on the master cyclinder also make sure you add more fluid if needed

its way easier having two people, just have one person pump the clutch and have the other bleed

the spring on the clutch pedal will pull the pedal to the floor. dont worry if this happens just pull it back up and keep at it.

get a power bleeder....they work miracles

If I'm by myself I'll just open the bleeder and wait until no more air bubbles are visible. That method has always worked great for me.

If you have a buddy, it's better to bleed the system normally.

Spend $33 on one of these:

Mityvac Vacuum Pump

Turns a two-person 30 minute job into a one-person 10 minute job. Works even better on brake bleeding.
