Subject: Re: '87 900S Clutch Bleeding Help
If you have an old radiator cap, it will fit the master cylinder. I drilled
out a hole in mine to accommodate a schrader valve from the auto parts
store. Mounting the valve in the cap with a little silicon sealant and a
bicycle pump can then be used to pressurize the master cylinder. Don't put
too much pressure or the hose to the clutch cylinder will pop off making a
big mess. (Don't ask :) ) The problem I always have with the vacuum at the
bleed screw idea is I get leaks at the bleed screw. All I get is a steady
stream of bubbles and it is hard to tell when the air is gone.
Good luck,
Dan
