Today I was told I should prime the MC before installing (fill reservoir with fluid, operate pushrod and let fluid run out on in stroke, but put fingers in front of pipe holders on the back stroke so no air is sucked in) Didn't know I need to do that with the Power Bleeder, but I'll give it a shot.

Bore was not bad, though there was a bit of rust near the back. No scratches, no marks. When I dumped out the remainder of the fluid, tiny black particles (rubber?) came out also. I polished up the bore, looks like new.

I found 2 places who have that kit, CVI (Sweden) and Swedish Treasures (USA) I got mine from CVI, cost with shipping was around $65.

The kit I purchased was #273076, photo on above link shows exactly what you get.
