my slave sylinder went bad should i change my master cylinder while i'm at it?
On a scale 1-10 how hard is it to change each of the cylinders.

you are talking about the clutch system, correct?

I changed the slave in about 15 minutes. I would hold off on doing the master, unless you know for sure its bad.

yea i'm talking about the clutch system, ok i don't think there's anything wrong with the master.
how do i bleed it?

On the slave cylinder there's a bleed nipple - bleed it just like you would the brakes.

The slave's a little annoying to get at, but not too bad once you take out the battery & tray.

It is recomended to change the other if one fails as it becomes the weak point in the system.

2,3 on a bad day? Try a 5 or a 6 just due to the fact you have no way to reach the mother fvcker. I love the radiator. I swear to all that is holy, I have never been so frustrated by ONE nut than I am now.

Any tips on removing the clutch line? Anything at all?
