Why? 14 posts before anyone asked this question? That's quite worrying.

And if someone is paying me, and is worried about hte price of an MC, the MC gets done inside an hour. I'm paid by the job, and until customers tell me they want to pay more, shouldn't need bleeding. Hence the root to the problem [the acid others might call brake-fluid] stays put?

Give it until next MOT, ABS unit / seized calipers. Bill more than it's worth. One dead P80.

I'm more worried that you suggest after breaking the hydraulic systen open and allowing air in to replace the MC that you think it won't need bleeding?
