When replacing a brake line I bleed the system starting from the farthest wheel from the reservoir - as you should. I'm installing a new clutch master cylinder today. My question is that since the brakes & clutch both depend on the same brake fluid reservoir, do I need to bleed the whole system including the brakes? Or is the clutch line separate enough that the brake lines don't need any attention? Thanks

 

No, just bleed the clutch. The clutch only uses the brake MC reservoir, and its plumbed in higher so the brakes get priority with a low level situation.

Some where here I wrote some long posts on the clutch slave, suggest searching -- It can be difficult.

 

Thanks for the reply. I was able to get it bled successfully.
