Easy job, but how old is your slave?  I would replace it too if it has
not recently been done.  Pressure bleeding just makes it a one person
job.  I do have an "Eezi-Bleed" system I got from http://mossmotors.com
that is a cheap pressure bleed kit that works off of (low) tire
pressure.   Works great, I think it is about $30.  Worth it!

Replace the fluid in the brake half of the reservoir and purge old fluid
out of the lines too while you are at it.  This should be done every two
years due to moisture absorption.
