master cylinder

Probably going to be replacing my clutch master cylinder tomarrow. never done it before so should be fun, just had a few questions. first of all what is the easiest way to get to it and replace it. Second, i'm guessing i will just bench bleed the new MC like a brake MC? also how do i go about gravity bleeding the system if i have to do that? where is the bleeder? any Help and advice is great! thanks

easiest way is to have the hood open lol no its a pain in the butt to bend over the fender i know especially if its lifted... yes u can bench bleed it like the brake MC i think they even come with the little plastic filling and hose if im not mistaken

gravity bleeding is to time consuming a vacuum bleeder works the fastest

or loosen the bleeder valve on the slave cylinder and run a little piece of hose into a coke bottle with some brake fluid in it and pump like hell till the bubbles stop then u should be good to go
