Turbos may be different, so I'm probably telling you 2+2=5 here. Slave...remove starter, unbolt cylinder from bellhousing, unhook line, reverse process...15 mins tops. the master took me awhile cause of the awkward position. Unhook the plunger from the clutch pedal (inside car), unbolt cylinder pull it out, do the line thing again, reverse the process again. I don't think it matters what you do first, cause you'll have to bleed, and bleed, and bleed, and bleed. Hope it helps.

It may take nine hours by yourself, but I crawled under the car, had a friend hit the pedal then I bled it, and did it about 20 times to be positive. Just like bleeding brakes if you ask me. It took about 15 minutes also. After bleeding, put the starter back up. It ran just as it did before, clutch felt exactly the same. The bleeder Dave talked about will work equally well if you are literally doing it "yourself".

Your brake and clutch run off the same res. It's that dingy yellow looking thing ontop of you master cylinder (it's right in front of the booster). That's where you add fluid. CAUTION--as you bleed, you will have to make sure you add more and more, if you don't you'll get air in the system, and you'll have to start all over. After all of that, I didn't leak a drop. It's been sitting with a blown engine since April, and it's still as full as the day it blew. Good luck. <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[burnout]" />
