Bleeding clutch slave
After replacing my clutch this weekend on my '02 I noticed on the slave cylinder there does not appear to be a bleeder valve. Am I overlooking something or is there some other way to bleed the system?
-Thanks

No, you are not overlooking anything. The system is closed, no need to bleed it.

How do you build pressure back up in the system?

"Closed"?
Sorry I'm curious to what you mean by "closed".

You can indded get air into the system and it can require "bleeding" - but this is done by opertaing the slave piston by hand which will self bleed back to the resivour - unless the slave is damaged or worn letting more air in.

There is a small grub screw on many slave housings this should NOT be touched.
Sorry if you search for this it has been explained several times.
Cheers

The search doesn't work for me. Thanks for the tip, that worked great. I got the pressure built back up.
