just like it says.....my clutch fluid is really nasty and the way it says to in my haynes manual seems really complicated. do u guys know an easier way i.e. using a vaccum bleeder just to suck the lines out

i dont think a vaccum bleeder would work. just do what the manual says [img]smile.gif[/img] -
I have a 2000 m5 camaro, if you have the same tranny its the same as bleeding brakes. Theres a line sticking out of the transmission on the driver side near where the main clutch line goes in. have someone push on the clutch and loosen the bleed tube and there you go, close bleed tube pull up pedal pump and repeat until fluid is clear.255/50R16 Tires, Pioneer Deck, Pioneer 4 Way speakers, PPI Amps, JL subs, Spec Stage 3 Clutch, Optima Yellow TopComment

That is ONLY for 95+ 3800 engines. The 3.4L has an external slave cylinder, the 3800 uses an internal slave.Robert - owner www.FirebirdV6.com/CamaroV6.com

Then if it external there should be a alal screw on the top of the slave.. Then it would be the same process.. Pump the pedal a couple of times then hold it to the floor.. Untighten the screw untill it sprays out fluid and then tighten back up..Jeff ..
