FYI, changing clutch MC and slave dry works
FYI
I have changed the clutch master cylinder and slave in both my 1985 12a and GSL-SE 13b in the last 30 days and have been successful in installing them dry and not having a problem bleeding them. Which makes the installation cleaner, e.g. no risk of spilling brake fluid as you install them with brake fluid in them. There was a difference of opinion from several persons on my earlier post, so I thought it would be informative if I posted that I have made the installs twice without problems by not priming first.
