Take it off....takes 5 minutes. The time you have been on here...could of had it done by now. (Im a grumbly old guy)

yes you can bleed it like that, it'll work fine... I personally don't like bench bleeding, one problem with it is that if you put the mc in a vise the wrong way, you'll screw it up... it's just a messy hassle.

I bled the last mc that I installed by myself using a 2x4 propped against the seat, to hold the brake pedal down.

put rags under everything, and have someone crack the brake line nut while you are pushing down on the brake pedal... just treat it like it's a slave cylinder bleed screw.
