Bleed the Hydraulic Clutch cylinder before installing it? Can this be done? can you put the unit together and bleed it THEN install the whole thing in the car and be done? Has anyone done this before???

Re: Bleed the Hydraulic Clutch cylinder before installing it? I have done this a couple of times with no problems. I put the master in my vise. Found something to hold resevoir up then took a small bolt and used it to push the black cap in at the end of the line. I would push the rod in on the master and when I start to fell pressure then push the black cap in on the line(I put the line in my hand with the bolt on my thumb. So I hold the line with my fingers and use my thumb to push bolt in and out)When the master rod bottoms out release black cap and repeat untill all air is gone. Watch resevior and don't let it run out of fluid. You will refill it several times.
