Straight from the Helms:

- Attach a hose to the bleeder screw and suspend the hose in a container of brake fluid.
- Slowly pump the clutch pedal until no more bubbles appear at the bleeder hose.
- Refill master cylinder when done.
- Use only DOT 3 or 4 fluid.

It takes two people and a while to do. But it will build up!

dont do top shotta's way, he skipped a few lines of instructions. after you press the pedal down, u need to close the bleeder screw , THEN only can u lift the pedal back up.

u can gravity bleed it in the beginning, jus attach a hose then open the bleeder screw, the fluid and big chunks of air will gradually flow out. after there seems to be little or no more air, start doing the 2 people pump bleed, have fun, it shouldnt take long buddy!
