which mity vac? Which mity vac do you guys use for bleeding the clutch?? What other special parts are needed? or is it better and easier to just do the 2 person method with one inside the car and one under opening the bleeder screw and refilling??

Got the mityvac kit from Autozone...the packaging says OEM...something or other, but handle on pump says mityvac. $30 and comes with all the pieces you need. The only issue I found was that the clutch resevoir didn't hold enough fluid to displace the air that was sucked out, so more air was sucked in each time I pulled the fitting. I bought some valves and tubing at the hardware store and set up a system where I had a line going into a clean bottle of fluid with a valve and the pump on a valve. I filled the resevoir and pumped down the line....closed the vac pump valve....and opened the valve to the new fluid, which the vacuum sucked out the fluid to replace air....closed fluid valve....started process over.
