      Most of them have a chain or clamp to hold them on the master cylinder then you open bleeders. always wanted one of those but now I use my Phoenix Injector.
      Correct there is a chain that goes around the m/cyl and you tighten it down. There is a valve on top to adjust the pressure as well. I find at the lower pressure it doesn't seem to push the fluid.



      Once it is pressured up are you supposed to pump the pedal or does it push right thru? My 56 does not have any kind of proportioning valve, it is straight from the m/cyl to the wheel cyls.
      Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting - Holy cow - what a ride!!!
