Re: clutch bleeding help needed

[Ralph Moorhouse <ralphmo@domain.elided>]

A couple of us here in Houston were speculating (beats working on the
car!!) that the Milano clutch slave is difficult to bleed because it's
source of fluid is the brake reservoir (connected by push on flex
hose).  Our musings lead to the hypotheses that, a) the flex hose could
leak air into system, and/or b) when you raise the car at rear, as the
fluid in reservoir gets low the flex hose inlet sucks air.

Just some random thoughts from hot & humid Houston - maybe totally
irrelevant but.................???????
