Go to the technical bulletins and read the revised clutch bleeding procedure. You need the mity vac with the brake bleeder kit and you pull the air out from the top, no need to get under the car at all unless you're changing the fluid.

I used the mityvac pump to flush the fluid out from the bottom, put it back together and then bled the traditional (pump clutch, hold, open bleeder screw, close it and then release). Worked like a champ. I had to rig it to flush the fluid in the master cylinder. Dont forget to keep an eye on the level in the reservoir. You dont want that to get empty!!
