exactly the same as brake fluid. Get a syringe and suck out all the fluid until it gets to teh Low line. THen add new fluid till its full. Once thats done, goto the slave cylinder (on the front of the gearbox) and attack some hose + bottle with some brake fluid already in it. Now repeat the following steps until all the old fluid has some out, along with any bubbles:
1) open bleed nipple slightly, and get somone in the drivers seat to depress clutch.
2) close bleed nipple and release the clutch peddle
3) repeat.

WHen doing the above repitition make sure the fliud resoviour never goes below the low mark, alway top it up.

laslt,y its a good idea to une 2 different coloured brake fluids (able to see when the new one is comming out the bleeder), and a clear hose (i used fishtank tubeing)
