yea the bleeder valve is right on the slave cylinder, 8D

you'll need 2 people if your doing it o'l school style, one person pumps clutch pedal 5 times, hold clutch in place all the way and then release the nozzle at the slave cylinder & immediately close it up wehn you see skitt come out from valve. 8D and pull clutch back and repeat this til you feel the clutch getting firm to your touch.. it'll get harder as you repeat this step. takes a while also. this is o'l school style.. and or get a vacuum gunn.. just thought i tell ya how i do it every now and days..

pump the clutch pedal 3 times and hold to the floor. loosen the nipple on the end of the slave cylinder to release air. while still holding the pedal to the floor. tighten it back up..Repeat this till you have full pressure in the pedal again.
