If this is the 2.2 with the bleeder on the bell housing I have found a Cheap, simple, way to bleed these clutches.
You will need a syringe( A large one you can get from anywhere Ie: for feeding cattle medicine etc.) you will also need a turkey baster to remore fluid from the resivoir.Also a piece of hose that fits over the bleeder and attaches to the syringe. Total cost is maybe ten bucks.
You have to bleed the system backwards, forget what anybody tells you. The cheap manuals that tell you to bleed the system the normal way like brakes are wasting your time. Follow these simple directions and in less then ten mins the job is done and all the air is removed.
It helps to have someone using the turkey baster removing fluid from the resivoir as you bleed.
Simply suck up fluid in the line into the syringe SLOWLY, you may have to go in and out a few times but make sure there is no air in the fluid. If you hold the syringe pointed down the air wil stay in the top of the syringe.Loosen the bleeder and attach the line squirting out a bit of fluid as you do to eliminate any air. Now open the bleeder and SLOWLY push on the syringe and inject the fluid. This works like magic. The air will rise out of the resivoir, Your buddy can remove fluid with the turkey baster as it comes up and in no time at all you will have a solid pedal with no air in the system. Keep an eye on the fluid, you may have to rebleed if you didn`t get all the air out the first time but trust me, this is the way to go. Good luck, A simple cure to a difficuilt problem.
