It pulls from a tube in the brake fluid resevoir. It's a pain to bleed. Remove one of the 2 bolts from the slave cylinder. Loosen the bleeder nut on the slave cylinder. Manually pump the fluid by pushing the slave cylinder back and forth.

It's been a couple months but lets see if I can paint a good enough picture for you here.....

Put the front of the car on jack stands or ramps and crawl under the car. If you look up on the drivers side of the car you'll see where your clutch line connects into the Slave cyliner (if I remember correctly). off of the slave cylinder you'll see a bleeder valve (nipple) just like the ones on your brake calipers. Put the hose on that, loosen it and have someone else pump the clutch pedal. They will have to use their hand because once you push the pedal down it will not return on it's own. Make sure to check your level up top so you don't end up with any air bubbles because you bled it down too far. Once you've bled it enough so you have nothing left of the old fluid tighten the bleeder valve again and you're done. Pretty easy job actually.

Not quite. They both share the same fluid reservoir, but have separate master cylinders. There is a line that goes from rear of the brake fluid reservoir to the clutch master cylinder.

Just to clarify, it is the same reservoir, but it is divided. So, even if you see fluid in there, it's very possible the clutch portion of the reservoir is much lower than the brake portion (when bleeding the clutch line). Just keep it above the MAX line and bleed down from there.
