You don't bleed a manual transmission-you just drain and fill it with 80W90 weight gear oil.

Okay I understand make sure the clutch master cylinder is full -find the slave on the bottom near the transmission -then you bleed like doing the brakes. You pump a few times hold it down-open bleeder valve wait till bubbles/fluid stop then close the bleeder repeat this 2X. If its not improving after 3X the clutch master cylinder could be leaking internally-needs replacement.

Ok, could you tell me what size wrench I will need, or what tools for that matter. Also, is there any way you could send me a picture so I can be sure i'm looking at the right place.
