bleeder valve can some one show me a picture of where the bleeder valve is on my car. i had it at tuffys and they wanted to remove the transmision to bleed the clutch which made no sense to me so i said no. but if somebody could help me locate the bleeder valve i would apreciate it. thanks. oh and its a 00 trans am
Yeah, it is above the hydraulic line. It is a PITA to access and can be messy. I was able to get the socket on, but not with a breaker bar attached. Then I could not get the breaker bar on the socket. And trying to get the socket back off was next to impossible. Others have had better luck, but my friend and I did not. I just sourced a bleeder extension from Steve-D to put on my car during the clutch swap next month. That will eliminate the problems of getting to it and make the process MUCH easier.

does anyone know what the threads are in the slave? I have access to a million used steel braided lines but I can not figure out what the threads are. I have tried pipe and the AN threads and they do not work, the only thing that has come close to screwing in there was a 3/8ths bolt. If I knew the thread I could just screw in a fitting and attach a -3 line with a bleeder attached to the end of it.
