... just an add on to all advice already given... I've always heard that you  
should start at the point furthest away from the master cylinder and then  
work your way forward. Ie... For a left hand drive car.. right rear, left  
rear, right front, left front, clutch and then master cylinder. Of course I  
would certainly defer to Phil but I believe that's a fairly universal  
concept.

In my experience the key is some pressure, not that you need a lot. 
I've had good results using only about 15 psi.

Pressure bleeding will do the best job but be careful with a 30 year old 
fluid reservoir and other parts or you could destroy them with too much 
pressure. 
I had a kit once that created pressure using the spare tire....that was the 
safest. 
Thanks 
Steve.
