From what I read elsewhere my master cylinder is bad...looks easy to replace accept for the bench bleeding. Does anyone know if the new master cylinder
will come with a bench bleeder kit?? looking at the ones at Autozone and Advance Auto. Thanks

From: Skokie (look it up)
master cylinder is leaking, replace it ASAP or it will eat the booster and then you'll have to replace that as well.
