It is tough enough to get a hand and arm down there -- and see/feel what you are doing and without inadvertently disconnecting some of the hoses and wires down there. . First check to make sure that you have a metric nipple! Using a SAE wrench on an 8mm nipple is not good! (Even an open end 8mm wrench may slip, because you can't tell if it is properly engaged.) I use an 8mm box end wrench (from a ignition wrench set). "Hang it" on the nipple and break it loose. Move the wrench so you will have about a 30+ degree swing available and then put the bleed hose on the nipple. (If the bleed hose has a small enough OD, then you can reposition the wrench as needed.) Once you have gone through the bleeding process, leave the whole contraption (box end wrench and bleed hose) in place until you have started the engine and cycled the clutch to verify that it operates correctly!
