first off, PLEASE DONT PUT oil in there.
or you will be doin it all again.
with that said,fill the mc, out your fingers over the ports. push the pedal til your fingers pop off of the ports. when effort is stopped, your fingers block the hole to not let air in. do this til it stops bubbling.
then bolt it up, and bleed all 4 wheels.

So just to confirm
1- install the mc and dont install the two brake line on it
2- use your finger to seal the two port where the two brake line will be installed.
3- fill the mc
4- pump the pedal until there is no more air buble in the mc
5- install the two brake line on the mc
6- bleed all the brakes
Am i correct? not sure about number 4
Thank you

have a friend pump the pedal til air stops coming out of the ports.
the correct way to do it is to bench bleed it with lines going back into the master til it stops bubbling there.
but if you dont have a bench bleed kit, thats the way i have done it everytime.
