Going to replace my slave cylinder and clutch line either tonight or tomorrow. Anyone familiar with bleeding the line?
I'm assuming it'll be like bleeding the brakes? Pump up the brake pedal - then press the clutch pedal down while cracking the bleed screw? I'm not entirely sure how the hyd clutch system works on this car...

Look up the video on reverse bleeding. You will thank me

To bleed the master I have had no issues just letting some fluid run through the bleeder by gravity. Then let it sit for a half hour and pump it gently a couple times. Repeat the wait and pump a couple times and the air just rises and the gentle pumps let it go back to the reservoir.

I went out and bought a small oil can like in the link above - as well as a vacuum bleeder kit (since I'll be redoing some brake lines soon and having to reveled the whole system anyways). So I've got acouple options to get it done.
At gym... Then home to get to work.

What brand slave did you buy?
Bought in fall - so honestly don't recall. I believe I bought it with the braided line from CATuned.

How did the slave bleeding go? What was the final fix?
