I've never seen one like that. Looks like it was leaking, unless you had it open recently...

i bled the brakes, it wont open when the pedal is compressed. you have to let up off the brake pedal if you want it to release it. it has a notch in it, and im not sure how you you bleed it for sure..

Never seen one like that. From the looks of it, you would push it in and turn it, that should open the bleeder and hold it open. You should be able to find a stock replacement one at the parts store.
