Ranger Clutch Fluid Change procedure?

Watched some videos on bleeding our clutch fluid. Some people have had success some have not. Problems are speculated as being either pumping too quick, holding the drain open too

Default Ranger Clutch Fluid Change procedure?

Watched some videos on bleeding our clutch fluid. Some people have had success some have not. Problems are speculated as being either pumping too quick, holding the drain open too long or at the wrong time, etc etc....

What about an alternative? Coming from the Corvette world we almost exclusively used the "Ranger method" watch the video below. Essentially you change out the clutch fluid reservoir, pump the clutch 15 to 20 times, then change it out again ...multiple times....see second half of video for procedure.

If done often keeps the fluid clean and your constantly introducing new clean fluid if done regularly.

Can someone please inform me why this method does not work on the 370z and why it does on the Corvette....in this case there is no possibility of problems nor air bubbles in the system associated with the bleed under the car version...

See video below...
