Angry Bleeder Valve......

Well i seem to be having a problem with clutch pressure....It seems to me when i first drive it everything is fine but after about 5-10miles or so i start to lose clutch pressure sometimes almost all of it and sometimes it wont do it at all....Now a friend of mine told me that clutch fluid might be heating up which makes sense to me because i only have this problem after the motor fully warm's up...Im thinking of bleeding the clutch since there might be some air pockets in the lines my question is where is the bleeder valve?!?!?!? Im pretty sure i have spotted it but it looks like to me that it is not completely exposed only the top is open and i would like to know how to get to it so i can fix this annoying problem.....



Any help would be greatly appr.......

it should be one the side of the tranny close to where the fluid line goes into it. it will be a small fitting like on a brake caliper. You bleed it the same was as brakes...
