    Ford Ranger clutch systems (also includes Aerostar, Explorer and Bronco II) require special procedures to bleed the hydraulics properly. The mounting position [Click Here for Diagram] of the master cylinder on the firewall traps air in the rear portion of the cylinder. Before bleeding the system, remove the master cylinder from the firewall and position it so the reservoir end is higher than the push rod end. This will enable air to escape from the rear position of the cylinders. Use only approved hydraulic fluid recommended by the manufacturer. We highly recommend the use of a Phoenix™ injection-bleeding tool, which is available through your Perfection Clutch distributor. For additional information, refer to Ford bulletin #93-12-19.
