Not needed. When replacing the MC, you get a lot of air in the system. To pressurize the system, you have to aggressively pump the brake pedal till you get pressure and hold it. If you let it go, compressed air will push the fluid back out into the MC and on out. Bleeding the system takes two people.

1. Starting with the right rear cylinder, use a container, rubber hose from the WC into the container with the end submerged in brake fluid.

2. Pump the system till you get pressure. Open the WC valve and continue to pump the pedal to push air out.

3. Keep the MC filled with fluid as you do this. Once air is out, close valve and move to the left WC and work through all 4 WC.

You just have air in the system.
