I never bench bled mine, just switched it and bled the brakes. It's been working fine for 2 years after changing it.

Dont do that. Thats a good way to lock up the lines. I have a couple buddies who work in shops and ALWAYS bench bleed. It dosent take more then a couple mins to do.

BTW I hope your only using an OEM Cylinder.

If you really dont wanna go out and get a very very handy hanynes manual, all you have to do is find a way to hold it like holding one of the flanges with a vice grip. filler her up and bleed each outlet. a way to push on the piston is use a Phillips screwdriver or i used a Dowel to push the piston in.
