When I get home I'll check the part number for the right fitting to screw onto the clutch resevoir.

Might have to invest in one of these pending test results.

Nope...it pressurizes the system through the reservoir, and pushes the fluid through that way. As it pushes the old fluid out, it is putting the new stuff in, and you collect the old stuff out of the bleeder screw (or lack thereof I suppose for you).

Ok, the adapter part number is 1100 (for clutch resevoir), It is the European adapter.

I bought the Pro kit which comes with 6 adapters, pretty much can bleed anything.

I just bought the same one - part# 0250. Should be here in a couple days and I can try to get my Camaro rollin' again. I'm missing out on some awesome weather here!

we've got one of those "brake flushers" here at the chrysler dealership i work at, im definately goin to have to give that a try. Just hook it up and push the fluid through? No pumping of the clutch right?

Has anyone had a chance to try the Motive bleeder on their clutch hydraulics? Mine will be here on Tues, so I have a bit to wait.

Yep...just did Friday evening, and it seemed to work great. I haven't been able to drive it yet (just got finished buttoning it all back up from my ARP wheel stud install in the back), but I'll post some feedback as soon as I drive it (should be this evening at the latest). The European adapter fit the clutch reservoir perfectly.

I then turned right around and bled the brakes. Worked great for that too.

Good deal! I did my brakes to about a month ago when I did the SJM ABS delete kit and the strange rear brake setup, it couldn't of been easier than with this power bleeder .

I just received mine today but didn't have a chance to bleed yet. When I screwed the Euro adapter brass end into the main brass fitting, it would only go about half way using my fingers. Did you guys crank it all the way down with a wrench? I'm hesistant because I don't want to strip the threads. Thanks! I should have mine done by this weekend - fingers crossed.

For a clutch do you have to bench bleed then power bleed, or can you just power bleed?
