Need some help replacing my master clutch cylinder. Replaced one on a Hyundai Santa fe once that's it. Just wondering if anyone's got some pointers?

Should be good to go, I'm not sure what a good brand is now days but they've been known to be defective brand new from the auto parts store.

Use flare wrench to loosen the line fittings so they don't round off. Bench bleed the clutch master. Easy installation, then bleed out all the old fluid through the clutch slave bleed valve, so you'll just have new fluid in the whole system. Either I've been buying lower-quality ones, but I've had to swap in new clutch master and clutch slave every few years, so think about one with lifetime warranty. Quality: take a bite of $$$ and go though dealer or dan@atkinsrotary.com

There are not a zillion factories making these, just many repackages.
