Is it possible to bleed the slave cylinder with a power pressure bleed pot?
I have bled it before manually with an assistant. The power bleeder works
great for brakes, I just did not know if you needed to push on the clutch
pedal to get the fluid through to the clutch.

Yes, easy and recommended. It's best to get the rear end up as high as you can during bleeding. Be careful not to pump up too much pressure with the power bleeder (10-pounds should be plenty) . Pull the pedal up before you start bleeding and there should be no need to pump it at all if done correctly. good luck.
