![]() The method that worked best for me was to have my wife pump the clutch until it was firm, then on the last of usually 3-5 pumps, she would hold it at the floor while I loosened the bleeder valve and let whatever fluid would drain quickly do so before closing it back up. To close it off after the fluid is flushed, I have my wife pump the pedal twice for just a little pressure then I open the bleeder valve with her off the pedal. While the fluid is draining, I tell her to push the pedal slowly while I close the bleeder valve. I bled nearly an entire 500 mL bottle of Motul RBF600 last time because we had trouble getting a firm pedal. Eventually we got it though ![]()
