Here's how to bleed the system:Bleed only one unit at a time; do the clutch slave cylinder first then dothe piping connector. Get someone to operate the clutch pedal while you dothe bleeding.

1 - Have someone pump the pedal several times then hold the pedal down.2 - With the pedal depressed, open the bleeder valve to release air.3 - Close bleeder valve; now the other person can release the pedal.

You may have to repeat steps 1 thru 3 several times to purge all the air.Repeat steps 1 thru 3 for the piping connector.While you're doing the bleeding, make sure to keep the reservoir full.
