[QUOTE="joe28kdx, post: 834397, member: 25054"] I never "pump" bleed my master cylinder, (be it clutch or brake).(you bust a big bubble into thousands of tiny bubbles that are a pain to get out)! I let it gravity bleed out, always making sure to never run out of fluid in the master cylinder! Sometimes you gotta, "reverse bleed" as mentioned. DRAIN the master cylinder, (keeps the mess down) and SLOWLY add fluid from the bottom with a syringe until ALL the tiny bubbles are gone. Why do you have to bleed it??? It doesn't use fluid??? Where di it go???? When I first got my sons 01 KTM 125, it had no clutch, bleed it, used it, no clutch. Make a long story short, the "O" ring had made a groove in the cylinder wall, fluid was leaking by. So if you bleed it and it goes, check that. You do realize you can't use brake fluid right?? I had used hydraulic clutch oil from a car, (Jag I believe) but have had good luck with 5 wt fork oil. Joe [/QUOTE]
