If it isn't some high tech polished aluminum thing and looks like a master cyl. I would put it in the vice and bleed it.

Found a Dorman part # M36218 New not rebuilt.

I just got a new MC from NAPA that said not to bench bleed . Said it would damage it internal . I bench bled it with no problems . This was on a 64 fury with pb.

What happens is folks push the piston too deep and damage the seals. When it’s mounted on the vehicle you can not over shoot it.

I did think the spring will let the seal go that far and bottom out. But maybe it could.

I haven’t bench bled a MC in a long time. Install and bleed with the pedal. The air will eventually all come out.

Thats what the written directions said. Only depress the piston not more than 1 inch.
I'll probably bench it and be careful. Waiting for the rear brake hose to arrive. I did inline tube for a complete metal line set.

"bench bleed" it on the car, using the pedal...... then connect the lines
