I have to get one installed, How do you bench bleed to get air out?
Not to hijack. I dont think you can get much shorter MC.

Put it in a vise, or a holding fixture so you can have both you hands free....fill the reservoir, using the supplied fittings a tubing that comes with your new cylinder. screw in the fitting, attach the hoses and route them back up into the reservoir. Using a screw driver or something else that is long. Pump the mastercylinder until all the air is out...or until you dont hear the "sloshing" noise anymore.
