just like bleeding a brake line. look for the nipped on the clutch slave cylinder (near where your engine stamp is)

NO.

you dont pump the pedal while bleeding clutch.


also you can just gravity bleed it as long as the clutch master cylinder doesn't have air

Because it tends to mix up the air in the system. Besides clutch hydraulic systems have no accumulators and don't build pressure the way brake systems do.

If you have a helper, just have them press the pedal down once but don't pump it. Then open the bleeder. Close the bleeder and he can lift up the pedal. Repeat until all the air is out
