Does the LT1 Slave Cylinder have a bleeder? I can't see one on my new parts, I don't have any old stuff to compare to as this is a A4-M6 conversion. Looking in my Haynes book they don't mention anything about using a bleeder valve in bleeding the clutch lines?? WTF???

dosent have a bleeder screw. what you have to do is install it, fill the reservoir with brake fluid, get under the car and push the slave pushrod in about 2 inches and hold it vertically with the pushrod facing down. have some one close the reservoir cap and then release the pushrod.when the pushrod is completley out again, keep pumping it in slowly about 10mm in and out, while some1 checks for bubbles in the reservoir. keep doing that until there are no more bubbles.if you have to hold the pushrod in again and have some1 close the cap again etc..

The Mcleod LT-1 External slave has a bleeder. I currently don't have any in stock but should have some in 3-4 weeks if you can wait. They are in production as we speak.
