Yesterday I installed a new clutch hose and thanks to the tips here it went pretty smooth. As for the bleeding I tried everything I could to do it alone but I ended up calling a friend to pump the pedal while I removed the slave and held it in a favorable position. It is the same procedure that I use to bleed the clutch in my GMC S-15, I learned it from a TSB(technical service bulliten) from GM.

The trick to bleed buy yourself!!

Use a flexible broom handle to push the clutch in and jam it between the door and seat to hold it while you open and close the valve.

Using one or two helpers is far easier though.

AN easi bleeder works if you want to invest in one. I have one but, can never find it when I need it. The broom is always handy.

I guess I am lucky because the kid that was my teammate all of the way through automotive school also happens to be my neighbor. I still do hotrodding with him all the time and I even gave him a key to the shop so if I need a hand(or a foot) he is a phone call away. I enjoy helping out a few of the kids(the ones that aren't spoiled rotten little s%&*#) from school since they don't have shops of their own. I guess it is my way of giving back.
