bleeding the clutch

Ok, I was looking into buying an 87 TII, but the clutch needs to be bled. I've never had a full hydraulic clutch before, anyone care to explain how this is done?

The closest i've been is a hydraulic actuated fork, and I never did any work on it. I had it for about 2 months, and sold the car. The rest of my vehicles have been mechanical clutches all the way :<

I found a Great way to DO it!..with One Guy!..Use a One man Brake bleeder Kit.fill the little bottle up a Bit,so that if the Bleeder decides to Suck back,that it has Juice,not air.Put the Hose onto the Bleeder and Crack the bleeder..Pump the Pedal about 5-6 times.You should be able to see air in the Outlet hose going from the Bleeder to the Bottle..Once you have Pumped the Air out,by Pumping the Pedal Until the Air is NO longer Visible in the Hose,Close the Bleeder screw..DONE!..easy as that!

^^that will work ... if you have access for a small self bleeder kit... basically a hand held pump that creates vacuum. just put it on the bleeder, crack open the line and start pumping... its not a very long line so there isn't much to bleed. then close up shop and your done.
