I don’t know about a mitz. but on my frontier 2.4 there is a little bolt just behind the PS pump looking straight down on the engine. There’s even a little tag next to it that says what it is. Good Luck! Wish I knew how to post pictures I could show it.

Hi all , I’m back with some pics of what I THOUGHT could be bleeder valve I’m gonna try and post them but ?????
Actually thinking about. It, I already know the answer is no cuz this thing is a fairly soft rubber. It spins about loosely in its hole. I’m not sure what it is though.
I tried Ivy’s route, and although the photos aren’t from the POV which led me to this little thingy, it is the only thing close to the location he found his on his frontier. Hope that makes some sense. If anyone does know what this is, feel free to let me in on it k? 😉 thnx

Oh crap hang tight. The pic I’m looking for must be on my phone. But I’m throwing this one in (don’t know if its visible) to show the rust….. What’s a safe way to clean the pulleys without risking debris getting into alternator for exampLol

OK this is the pic I’m talking about. This little nubby thing is all I found when looking straight down on engine, & it is located right behind PS pump, but I saw no plate saying what it was so golly, I’d have to say its probly not bleeder valve. Lol
Thnx jonny

I have a 2001 Galant and it has no bleeder. Galant and Eclipse have the same engine. So i believe yours have no bleeder. Are you having overheating issue with the car? Is so, just raise the front of your car and run the engine for a while with open radiator cap. Goodluck.
