Bleeding Hyd Clutch system, how?
 

Is there any way around removing everything and bench bleeding the hyd clutch master? I've gravity bled the system and have a good stream coming out of the t/o bearing bleeder line but I can't get any pedal resistance, none at all. Yes the bleeder line is on top.

I have done a couple where the master was not bench bled first. Usually the Vacula will handle it, but you need an air compressor. There are probably less expensive versions of the same thing. Before I found that I got a spare cap that fit the clutch reservoir and drilled a hole in the center of the cap, maybe 1/4" or less. Filled the reservoir, installed the cap, and with the air pressure regulated down to 10-15 psi MAX put a rubber tipped air blow gun and pushed it tightly into the hole in the cap. Have someone crack the bleeder while you watch the reservoir MAKING SURE TO NOT DRAIN THE RESERVOIR OF FLUID AND RE-INTRODUCE AIR INTO THE SYSTEM. Bleed until all air is removed, probably have to re-fill the clutch reservoir more than once.

If you're a one man operation you could thread a 1/4" npt air hose quick connect into the cap and attach your air hose to hold it in place. There are also brake pressure bleeders that incorporate a spare reservoir to draw fluid from so the reservoir doesn't run out. This was just a simple cheap fix that worked for me. Watch the air pressure, doesn't need to be above 20 psi max so as to not possibly damage anything.

I bought one of these....

They have a cap for small reservoirs as well as a plate for brake masters and lots of other accessories for whatever system you need. Makes it a one person job

I removed it from the car and bench bled it, now waiting on a friend to come push the pedal while I turn the bleeder.

Based on DHutton's info on another forum, i've decided to get myself a professional DIY bleeder kit. The quickest available I could find is the more expensive unit from NAPA under the Carlyle brand but looks to be the same as the Phoenix MaxProHD, uses the same part# 2002HDB.
NAPA says they'll have it for me at 8am tomorrow.. what the hell's a few extra bucks at this point of the game plus it'll work for the brakes on the car and truck.
