I want to change my brake fluid (long overdue unfortunately) and I don't have a pressure bleeder or even a vacuum device. I can do the brakes OK the simple way (found it in the archives) but how do I do the clutch? Bentley says to only use a pressure bleeder for this. Should I just ignore bleeding the clutch and hope that enough of the new brake fluid will work it's way through? Would a Mityvac vacuum type system work for the clutch bleeder valve? And does the Mityvac work better for the brake side of things as well? Can I try to work the clutch pedal in the same way as the brake pedal? Should I do the brakes first or the clutch first or does it matter? Thanx for this. Rich
