Default please help bleeder valve

I need help. I can't find this bleeder valve for the slave. I read the FAQ thread and followed the directions reaching right above where the MC line connects to the Trans and nothing all I see is a line with a cap on it that runs to the back of the trans. It looks like you have to have a flat head to turn it and it runs to the back of the trans so I don't think that's it. I even went and bought a mirror and I see nothing. Can someone give some direction or help me in anyway?

I don't think it's right above but more to the left of the MC llne. You won't be able to see it but it is there.

I've been looking for it for about 7 hours now and nothing. I'm so frustrated with this thing. I just about think it would be easier to drop the transmission then it would be to bleed the clutch. Anybody got any pointers?

If you go to right above where the line goes inthe trans. there is an opening in the bellhousing.
There you can feel the bleeder screw it is a tight fit.
If you look at the manual trans FAQ the pictures there will help you get the jist of where it is.
it is a 11mm or 7/16 bolt head size.
I use a 1/4 drive socket with a 1/4 breaker bar for F-bodies.

what i was told is, where u see the steel braided line on the bell housing, look directly above that there should be some type of black little hole, inside that hole should be the bleeder, check it out, if that doesent work, just cycle your old fluid in with the new, by sucking out the old fluid from the resirvoir and putting in new then repeating the process, i did that and it worked fine for me, keep me updated on how ur doin
