David, I am inclined to agree with your logic but would still suggest that a full stroke not be used during the bleeding. Less time is needed to refill the displaced fluid in the master (in a shaor stroke) and you may get a better air free bleed. You make a good point however. gary --- David Brodbeck <gull@gull.us> wrote: > On Thu, 13 May 2004, gary hradek wrote: > > > IF YOU CHOOSE to replace > > just the slave be careful not to push the master > too > > far forward, small short strokes are better than > long > > strokes > > This makes sense for the brake master, but the > clutch master is *always* > given a full stroke every time it's used.
