Bleeding Clutch
#3
Its the same as bleeding your brakes. You can squeeze the slave in your hand and pressurize it that way. I bled mine using an air compressor through the air hole in the cap on the clutch master. Took 5 minutes.

More specifically
Normally, you're supposed to bench bleed the Master before installing. As I recall, fill reservoir with brake fluid, hook up the bleed hoses that came with it, and bump with a dowel until you get solid stream of fluid.
After installing the Master, install the slave (two bolts and hydrolic tube). Loosen the bleed nozzle, slip one of the bleed hoses over it. While holding the other end of the bleed hose in a cup with clean fluid in it, have a friend pump the clutch pedal a few times (slow) until you get see a solid stream coming out. Then, tighten the bleed nozzel while your friend is slowly pushing the clutch pedal down one last time.
Fill the master reservoir to the full mark.
Your done.
