Hi all...newbie here. I'm trying to bleed the clutch on my first alfa ('87 spider grad) and I'm having a hell of a time.
I've tried putting a vacume pump on the bleeder and doing it solo, and I've tried 4 times with the wife working the pedal... she holds it to the floor and I crack the bleeder then close it. She lets up and we repeat the process.
If I pump it twice it works great, but if I let it up for more than three seconds it wont fully engage on the first stroke.
Am I doing something wrong? Do I need a new slave (no leaks), master (again no leaks)?
Should I have her pump it twice and hold before I crack the bleeder?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
