How to Bleed a C5 Clutch

C5 Corvettes with manual transmissions should have the clutch bled fairly often to avoid issues of the slave cylinder getting gunked up with clutch dust that gets past the seals in the enclosed area where the slave cylinder resides. There are 3 methods addressed in this video. 1.) Bleeding the clutch from beneath, 2.) From the top by removing the intake manifold and by using a remote bleeder. 3.) I also discuss the popular "Ranger Method".
