I've seen two methods for getting air out of clutch lines and slave cylinder on newer model Mustangs. Apparently the problem is that the slave bleeder screw is buried inside the bell housing and inaccessible so these weird (to me at least) methods are necessary.
#1 http://www.allfordmustangs.com/forums/1002625-post86.html Pull a vacuum on the master cylinder and then release and pump the clutch pedal. Repeat a few times.
#2 Park the car pointing uphill and pump the pedal many times very slowly.
I don't have a rubber stopper handy and also no desire to go looking for one. So I think I'll give #2 a try. My question: why would I want to pump the pedal "very slowly"? I'm surmising that parking the nose uphill puts the slave cyl at the very bottom of the hydraulic line and the bubbles then will rise up into the master cylinder with the pumping action. But why would slow be better than fast or any other speed at which the clutch pedal is pumped?
