tick remote bleeder was worth every bit of $50 or I did something wrong I Just install a new monster stage 2 clutch and tick master with the remote bleeder , I did a bullshit bench bleed on the floor in the drive way by my self and installed the master . Today i got home from work and add fluid to the master and opened the bleeder did a few pumps , added fluid did a few more pumps added more fluid , did a few more pumps with no air bubbles so i closed the line up ! my question is ....??
How do i know if it worked I cant drive it yet because i have so many other projects going on the car at the same time right now so is there a way to see if it works or do i just have to wait until i can drive it ? plus how hard should the peddle feel ?

i installed one on my vette and loved it, bleed the clutch and brakes (speed bleeders on calipers as well) all by lonesome. you should bleed it until theres no longer any bubbles in the line/coming out and pedal should feel the same pressure throughout the throw of the clutch not soft then firm (compressing air). i dont know how it is on the Fbodies but i would have to drop the trans to bleed the clutch until i installed this the last time i took apart the driveline.

I hope that its right should know soon enough ...If i have to bleed it again the bleeder is right near the fill so it wont be that hard . I love the speed bleeder already tho you just crack it open and pump away !! I also bought this bleeder bottle kit from harbor freight for $5 well worth it also once it fills up half way i know its time to fill up the master with more fluid ....

I strapped my tick speed bleeder right into the clutch reservoir. I first made sure no trash came out, so it never went empty.Then once I was finished, I re attached it. I even used a 2nd person to make sure the check valve did hold like it's suppose to. Once I finished, I kept it attached under the hood. It made life so much easier when doing maint by yourself.

The bleeding doesn't take long when you do it correctly, I believe most issues stem from two people trying to work together simultaneously. When you can control it all makes it easy.
If you bled correctly you will have full pedal feel, any air bubbles and your clutch with have loose feeling in it on the way down or up

With air in the system the pedal would not have a full rebound back from the floor after you pressed it down.
Bench bleeding is primarily done for the master cylinder to be primed prior to installation, so after you install you just need to get the small amount of air out of the slave.
