I just bought a new McLeod street twin, and a new GM slave cylinder/master cylinder set up. I took the GM master cylinder off and put the Mcleod one on that came with the clutch. I want to bleed it before I put it in, Mcleod recommends pressure bleeding the system. My two questions are this, what is the procedure for pressure bleeding this set up, and whats a decent tool to use, a Mityvac pump?

 

Anyone? How did everyone else bleed their clutch when they put in a Mcleod Street Twin?

 

I had the whole system out when I did mine. Filled up the resevour and worked the slave cylinder rod a few minutes then the master cylinder. Added more fluid as needed and did it again. I kept the components in their relative positions as they would be installed.

RES on top then Master cyl with the slave being lowest. Worked just fine .

 

I have it i the car right now, but it should still work the same. Did the air escape out the res.? Just wondering because there's no bleeder.

 

Yes it will bleed out of the Res.Keep the cap off. You'll see a steady stream W/O air when its purged.
