Tabe,

Bite the bullet and get a new clutch master from one of the list
vendors. Yo will be way ahead of the game on that one.

When you get ready to install it, you can draw all the brake/clutch
fluid out of the reservoir with a turkey baster or do like I did .... I
got a long piece of clear plastic tubing, and a 2 liter coke bottle. I
sat the bottle on the ground outside the door, stuck one end of the tube
into the reservoir and siphoned the whole thing dry in one fell swoop.

After installing the new clutch master, and all the tubing nuts are
tight, fill the reservoir, then crack open the top tubing nut on the
reservir, and allow a little fluid to bleed out. Tighen it up, then top
off the reservoir again. Then pump the clutch until the pedal comes back
up. It will take anywhere from 75 to 100 strokes. Believe it or not, it
will self bleed. Check the fluid level again and top off if needed. Then
you are good to go.

Good luck.
