just like bleeding brakes. Be sure you use a clear hose in fluid to prevent drawing back air into the system.

sup mustang?, long time no see.

id personally id replace it. while you have the lines disco dump some fluid in the resivior and pump the pedal a time or two and it will flush out the lines.

Unless it is leaking there would be no advantage to replacing it. If it has not been flushed out in awhile (if ever) then it will take several flushings before the fluid remains clear.
