"Hi all,
I have had the same problems and tried most of the methods. I finally found the one that is easy, takes only one person, quick, and will work every time if the system is in order otherwise. I found the technique here and I have posted it several more times.
Step 1. Take a bicycle tire inner tube and cut through it about 10 inches from the valve. The size of the tube is not really very important.
Step 2. Remove the cap from the clutch reservoir.
Step 3. Take the end of the inner tube farthest from the valve and put it over the filler hole on the clutch reservoir. It should be on the threaded part where the cap screws on. Then use a hose clamp (I can't remember the size) to clamp the inner tube onto the top of the reservoir. This takes a little bit of trial and error to get the right tightness. Too loose and it will leak. Too tight and it will cut through the rubber of the inner tube. May take a couple tries. If you get it too tight and it cuts through the rubber, just cut a half inch off the end and try again.
Step 4. Pour brake/clutch fluid into the open end of the inner tube until it is just below the valve. Of course, you must hold the open end of the tube elevated while doing this.
Step 5. Fold the open end of the tube over a couple time to seal it. I then clamp it using a spring clamp (don't know what they are called) from my wood shop. The type where you squeeze one end to open the other. It has rubber on the jaws so it is kind to the rubber tube. I then hang the clamped end from the hood latch so that it remains elevated above the reservoir.
Step 6. Take a bicycle pump attached to the inner tube valve and give it about 5 or 10 pumps. Careful now as too much pressure may cause the end on the reservoir to pop off and then you will have a mess.
Step 7. Now you have a much larger reserve of fluid in a pressurized system. All you do now is slip under the car and open the bleed valve. Use whatever method (if any) you want to catch the fluid flowing out. You should have a nice steady stream of fluid with bubbles followed by just fluid. It works like a charm.
The best part is that it only costs about $2.00 for the inner tube and it can be reused.
By the way, I found another problem on my '75 is that it is impossible to get a wrench on that bleeder valve. I took and cut the end off a cheap wrench so that it would fit.
Good luck.
