    Drove it yesterday new F1 power unit and CS exhaust system every thing worked great.

    Every where I looked how to bleed F1 power unit they used computers or factory SD tools .

    All you have to do to bleed F1 power unit, engine not running key turn on shift gears 1 to 6 and back and have a friend turn bleed nipple until no air bubbles
    lower one first and top one last took 15 minutes.

    Bleeding the actuator is best to use the tool..but there are ways around that too.

    Yes the shifting gears method works just fine for bleeding the release bearing. I do it that way on the Astons due to crappy communication issues some of them have.

    I have a 360 challenge car that I don't drive any more.
    I wonder if I could use the carbon fiber fuel tanks from it to save weight on my regular modena.
    Ever thought about that?

    I would get rags from the rag company. They are one of the best detail shops for micro fiber rags.
