is there anything involved with bleeding a master cylinder besides pouring in the fluid and pumping the pedal.

 

Do you actually mean bleeding the master cylinder itself or do you mean bleeding the brake system? They are two different things.

If you have run the master cylinder out of fluid or replaced it, you will need to bleed the master cylinder. If you have replaced a slave cylinder or otherwise had the system open past the master, then you will need to bleed the system. The procedures are different, although if you bleed the master cylinder, you will then need to bleed the rest of the system. The opposite is not true.

 

So how do you bleed the Master Cylinder.. and I'm assuming we are talking brakes.. not clutch.

 

You dont need to bleed the master cylinder unless you are replacing the unit and it is dry or you let all the fluid run out of it

 

here is the general idea though just FYI
