Location of clutch bleeder valve...

[feepness]

So I'm trying to bleed the clutch myself on my '99 GTS. I have tried unsuccessfully to locate the bleeder valve.

I've searched through the threads and still cannot find the damn thing. Of course, any pictures have expired so those are useless. Google isn't helping either...

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks...

Chris

The bleeder screw is recessed in and does not look like a brake bleeder. At least on my 04.

My god man... could you be more detailed?

What a gift. Thanks. Here's a link for the next dunderhead that asks and stumbles across this thread.

Bleeding the vipers clutch fluid is a PITA. Unless following the how-to's specifically you'll likely end up with more air in the system than you started with.

That's what I've been reading. I think I'm going to pick up a MityVac.

You're not get in trouble giving away secrets over there ?

Someone's quote = "Awesome writeup.

Ya know, you could post it over at the Viper Club being a good citizen, but they would move it to the "Illustrated Uprgades" section, and then charge you $100 membership fee to see your own post.

The Irony."

That's a really great write-up Dave. If VA didn't seem like sitting at the kids table, I may have found it sooner.....

I don't own a mityvac and don't like to mess with the bleeding procedure with 2 people, so I am just gonna let the garageguys do it with a vacuum bleeder.

A Mityvac is a vacuum bleeder...

ah, clear to me now. Not gonna buy it, let those garageguys spend 2 and a half minute on it while my car is in there for its periodical test.
