Or should it be 'bleedin clutch'

3.7 Roadster, done a full pipe trace all the way to the entry into the bellhousing / slave cyl and can't find a bleed point anywhere, had mirror on a stick, tried everything ??

Easy peasy on the 3.0, done a few in the past

Anyone got a clue please ?

It a concentric slave cylinder Jon so will be inside the bellhousing as shown below (3). Seems it doesn't have a bleed nipple though.

ETA: I believe vacuum bleeding at the m/cylinder end is the preferred method after intercepting reservoir to m/cyl pipe. Various YouTube video's describing method.

Give a Morgan dealer a call. Most service departments are happy to give guidance to the enthusiastic amateur.

I had to seek guidance from Allon White when I swapped engines in my 4/4 and they were very helpful. (Although I suspect they rolled their eyes after I put the phone down)

I seem to remember that the concentric slave cylinders I saw being installed a few years ago were pre-filled with fluid and had no bleed

II had same problem, had a leaking/loose fitting near bell hosing on my 2012 Roadster. After filling and tightening joint. mechanic said to pump it and it will come right. Took about 50 -60 km and it did.
