[Don't Panic]

I have a master cylinder kicking around that should work and I will try that. Not sure if I want to get involved with switching the lines around but it is an option if all else fails.

Regarding air in the line, I have been told that you can still pump up the brake to get a hard pedal. This doesn't sound right to me but does anyone know for sure?

In another forum, I had a guy telling me he had to bleed the brakes by pumping the fluid from the bleeder to the master cylinder using a syringe to get the air out. It is a wonder more people don't have brake problems if these methods are necessary.
