But what did work is opening up the bleeder and pushing in the slave cylinder letting out what lil fluid you had inside the slave cylinder then keep the slave cylinder push in and close the bleeder after go inside your mr2 and pump the clutch pedal about 15 time then release the slave cylinder from its grip and pump 15 again.
Interesting! Would you consider this a reverse bleed as you attached pressure to the slave cylinder bleeder? Like the idea of using pressurized bottle with "needle" for air pressure, but plan to go from the master and bleed to slave. Problems I am running into is finding a "cork" to cover reservoir and tap for pressure. Did you use thread tape on bleeder to avoid excess fluid loss? I have tried to vacuum bleed, but problem is air passing threads on bleeder and not getting enough fluid (in my application, MK3, the clutch line loops over the top of the master cylinder.....Grrr....no gravity bleeding. Also having issue getting clutch to respond under vacuum and it worked perfect b/4 engine swap. Very good thinking on pressure bottle! Mr .p
Thanks for the comment. I guess this would be considered a "reverse bleed" as the system is being filled in reverse.... I like to think of it as a reverse fill, as there was no "bleeding" involved. No, no thread tape was needed. Had to stretch the final tubing a little to get it over the nipple but once it was on there I had no leakage at all. I would imagine if you're going to try this from the master it might be feasible to just run the same type of needle through an old rubber master cylinder cap, but I would imagine you'd still run intonthebissure of air bubbles still trying to rise up through the lines. Hope that answers your questions.
Sounds like a good way to put a bunch of air in the lines
Good
about to try this method hope it works.
Let me know how it goes!
Noo lol

Mr2 took the w?
Yes, MR2 by a bumper.
