Subject:Last leg...clutch master cylinder is dead...

Hello again,
Back in Denver (one leg to go!), and the clutch master cylinder finally died
last night.  If I pump the clutch pedal, I can shift a time or two quickly,
but that's about it.

So the question is, how major of a job is the replacement?  I have one day
in Denver, and a pretty good assortment of tools.  If it's a really nasty
one, I may hire a shop.

Once replaced, do both the brake and clutch systems have to be bled (since
they seem to share a master cylinder reservoir?).

Thanks all, and talk to you again soon.
bmc  :)
