1.loosen the brake lines with a 10mm line wrench.2. remove the 2 12mm nuts holding the master to the fire wall.3. disconnect the loosened lines and sensor connector from the master.4. remove master from car.5. set up new master in vise on a work bench. Install bleeding kit with hoses routed back into the fluid resivior. 6. bench bleed master till no air is seen traveling through bleeder kit hoses.7. install master back in car in reverse order. 8. Check pedal firmness. if soft bleed master with a friend at the lines. 9. R/T for quality assurance.
