Tyson,
I just put a new master and slave in the 78 Midget. SO starting from bone
dry here's what I did.
Open the slave bleeder. put finger over tip. let assistant pump like
crazy for a few minutes. Then do the "down" "up" thing. Holding finger
over bleeder on "up" stroke. Only took about 10 minuts and 3 -4 refills
of the MC to get it right. Arm is soaked in brake fluid, (DOT 4 DOT 5
Scmot 6). Now have a good clutch feel and everything ;)
