1st, thanks to bmrfixit, for your timely response to my question! Now, as I just purchased my contour, last saturday, and know very little about it, mechanically speaking, my question is, how do you bleed the clutch hydraulic system? I assume, that it is similar to the brake system, however, I can't seem to locate the bleeder valve, also, is there any adjustment for the pedal freeplay? Thanks to all for a great forum, you guys rock!

There should be a bleeder valve on the slave cylinder (trans)Yes it is very similar to a brake system, it wil be much easier with 2 people.If there is any adjustment for free-play, it will be the rod under the dash from the master to the pedal assembly
