Bleeding the Clutch

Just like bleeding the brakes. There is a bleeder valve on the external slave cylinder on the driver side bellhousing. Have a helper push the clutch several times and hold it down, open the bleed screw, close bleed screw, repeat. Be sure to keep the clutch fluid reservoir full! I have gotten them to kinda self bleed by opening the bleed valve a bit, keeping the reservoir filled and letting the fluid run through and push out the air but it takes a while.

John is an expert on this system. I have assisted him numerous times on his Jeep. (all in one day):rolleyes:
 
So I went to bleed the clutch today and I discovered that there is no bleed valve as i understand a bleed valve to be. The closest thing that i found was a sort of "extension" of the slave cyclinder the top with a hex key bolt on it. I thought that i just might have over looked it but no one else in my family could find anything else....any ideas? :confused:
The guy I bought it from said that there was a new clutch could it be possible that there is a different slave cyclinder with a strange bleeder?
