Hi guys, I just got myself a new clutch master and slave cylinder. I currently have a speed bleeder hooked up on the Slave. Is it neccessary to bench bleed the master cylinder? Or just keep bleeding the system until theres absolutely no air bubbles is in the system?

I don't see any harm in it, but if you throw out the clutch damper and run the master straight to the slave, you can bleed the clutch system in like 30 seconds.
