I’ve just recieved my master cylinder back from Burt bros. When I asked about bench bleeding they said there was no need. “Just mount it up and bleed it like normal”
Does this sound right?

It will work either way.

I prefer to bench bleed first. It is less messy & you know it is fully bled before fitting. You will then only need 1 or 2 pumps after fitting, unless of course you want to fully bleed to the wheels.

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0

Hi Dr Terry
I was intending in bolting up “dry” and vacuum power bleeding the whole system at each wheel. Burt’s are saying that as it’s a non pressure line . Does my method sound ok
