1275 - Just HOW Do I Bleed the Slave Cylinder?

Decided to eliminate the dead clutch pedal,& bleed the
slave cylinder.There is almost no room to get to it - I couldn't
even figure out what wrench works.
What's the trick to it?

- Doug
 
I prefer to use a pressure bleeder. Wrench size depends on the slave, but most likely a 3/8.
 
And access via port / hole in PS footwell.
 
The slave on my '76 is 7/16". I found both of these approaches quick and easy to use.
