Lee, A friend and I bled his clutch system a few weekends ago. Useing a LONG extention on a ratchet worked to reach the bleeder w/o reaching behind the engine, and we could have used a funnel to catch the spill but didn't. While an all in one tool would be nice next time around, it wasn't really all that hard. (Oh, and a good spotlight helps out a lot in finding the end of the bleeder). What would have been perfect is a deep socket w/ half of it's wall cut away above the area that the bleeder would fit into with a vinal hose stuck in it that can be droped down to the floor and into a bucket/pan. Then not only would we have been able to catch the fluid, we'd been able to visually see if there was any air left in the line.
