manual gearbox C70 1998

Just in case you want to tackle the clutch bleed yourself:

I bled the clutch myself using a power bleeder from:

http://www.motiveproducts.com/

I just topped up the cylinder and used the tool to pressurize
the line (for brakes, you put fluid in the power bleeder but
for the clutch you don't have to move that much fluid).

First time I did it I somehow messed up. The clutch pedal went
straight to the floor. Second try I was more careful fitting
the drain line (which is where I think I got air back into the
system). It can also be tricky getting a wrench down into the
correct spot.

You are also working in front of the fan motor so disconnect the
battery to prevent problems (loss of fingers) should the fan
turn on.
