1. Gather the necessary tools and materials:
- Brake fluid (DOT 3 or DOT 4)
- Clear tubing (about 3 feet)
- Wrench
- Container to catch the old brake fluid
2. Locate the bleeder screw on the slave cylinder.
- It's usually a small screw located on the top or side of the slave cylinder.
3. Fill the brake master cylinder reservoir with new brake fluid.
4. Attach one end of the clear tubing to the bleeder screw and place the other end in a container partially filled with brake fluid.
5. Have a helper slowly press down on the clutch pedal while you watch for air bubbles in the tubing.
6. Continue to have your helper press and release the clutch pedal while you keep an eye on the fluid in the tube until no more air bubbles appear.
7. When there are no more air bubbles, tighten the bleeder screw and remove the tubing.
8. Fill the brake master cylinder reservoir with brake fluid again if needed.
9. Test the clutch pedal to make sure that air has been removed.
10. Repeat steps 4-9 if the clutch pedal still feels soft or spongy.
Note: If you still can't get the clutch to bleed properly, there may be a problem with the slave cylinder or the master cylinder. Consider having your vehicle inspected by a qualified mechanic.
