Would it work.

If I set up a suction feed spray gun to the bleed nipple on the clutch to bleed it.connect a tube from the suction pipe to nipple and press the trigger.what ya reckon.it should get rid of the debris from the master cylinder surely.

I imagine the tubing would become blocked? Possibly too, the fluid may be to thick to pass through the spray end?

I have a Draper suction pump for oil changes, and I reckon whilst it will suck out the fluid easily enough, any debris larger than 1 or 2 mm would clog the pipe, quite quickly, anything bigger the clogging will be quicker still.

Tbh I was thinking more along the lines of a stonechip gun.

Just watch where the fluid sprays out the other end.

Get down to the nearest Farmer's Stores, buy a 'Lamb Feeder'.

It's a comedy-sized syringe with a tube attached, great for bleeding through.

I have a carrier bag full of those big syringes from the hospital what the old lady gave me.

I have reverse bled the clutch using a 100 mL hospital syringe and tubing onto the bleed nipple - push at least 50 mLs through to fill the system, but have lots of rags around the top of the MC reservoir to catch any excess as it comes through. Personally, I usually just bleed the system from the master using an Eezibleed- seems to work well most of the time.
