Posts: 18 Thanks: 0 Trader Rating: 0 ![]() | How to bleed the clutch on GP 1.9 Hi Wondered if anyone can help me.... Just had my gearbox out of my GP to have a bearing replaced. Nearly all back together now just need to bleed the clutch. Does anyone know how your meant to do this? I have a rough idea. Did have a look for a guide but can't seem to find anything ![]() Thanks Lia x

If the pedal feels soft then hits hard, air is still trapped somewhere This is why a vacuum bleeder or pressure bleeder is great because it forces it out with ease ![]() Ziggy
