My clutch fluid needs to be changed and bled. I can't find any good info on how to flush the fluid, so here's what I was thinking:

1.) Use a Mityvac w/pencil tip to suck the all fluid out of the master and the line.
2.) Refill master with fresh fluid
3.) Get under the car and pump away, a la http://www.ls2.com/boggs/clutch/lt1clutchbleedingmm6.htm

Thoughts?

I had a bad experience with air getting trapped in the master so I wouldn't want to suck all the fluid out of the master and then refill it, it can be a serious pain to get all the air out. I've never looked at the lt1 hydraulic system closely though so I can't really recommend anything better
