Master Cyl Bleeding
 
Hi all, Need to replace the master brake cylinder on my 83 W123. Question, I have a pressure bleeder, is there any need to bench bleed the master if I use this pressure thing? Question 2 (a dumb one) if I do have to bench bleed how does that work? guess I've never done this before even though I've done lots of brake work.

Thanks.

no need to bench bleed. just install and leave the fittings a bit loose.
within minutes they will start to drip. now tighten fittings. then bleed
one fitting at a time. after this you will want to bleed the whole system
to flush it out and get new fluid throughout the system.
