Bleeding the clutch system via the clutch
servo
1.
Note:
Sometimes it may be difficult to bleed the
clutch system. In such cases, the clutch
system can also be bled using a priming
pump and the bleed nipple on the clutch
servo.
Ensure that the priming pump is thoroughly
cleaned inside.
Connect a transparent pipe to a priming
pump (e.g. oil can) and fill the pump with
the specified fluid.
2.
Continue pumping until fluid without air
bubbles flows from the pipe.
3.
Then connect the pipe to the bleed nipple of
the clutch servo and open the bleed nipple.
4.
Pump the fluid into the system with the
priming pump.
In doing so, observe the following:
-
Do not depress the clutch pedal.
-
Make sure that no air bubbles are
introduced into the system.
-
Monitor the fluid level in the priming
pump.
-
Monitor the fluid level in the clutch
