i used to have one its a very very very slow process. the fastest ways are to pump it like a normal brake system, and the other way is to rig up a hand controlled vacuum pump to the res, with SLIGHT pressure on the clutch pedal to allow air to be sucked out, and the Slowest way is just old fashioned gravity bleed
