Question Question on transfer case fluid...?

I looked at the transfer case on my 05 evo rs...and discovered that it has a "bleeder screw" just like a brake calipper...?
Does anyone know what it is used for?

Should i worry about it when changing TC fluid?

Thanks

No, means you can bleed the acd i also believe, but i was wondering does anyone no were we can get those bleeder tools, do any aftermarket places sell these kits yet.

Thanks for the help i know it is kind of off topic, but thought i would find out so i am prepared for first clutch install. I know there is ways around it but to do it right i believe you have to bleed the acd. If i am not correct someone please correct me.

ACD Bleed 2005 Evo

I'm getting ready to replace my clutch too. I'm thinking it should be pretty easy to just enable the pump and bleed the ACD. You would just bypass the regular wiring and hot wire the pump so it will run. It would be good if someone who has done it would post a little "how to" on this procedure. How bout it guys?
