Simply replace the slave unit. Cost is about $14.00. Not worth the time to take it back to the installer. You can do it in your garage.

There are several threads about how to do the replacement. Do a search and they will walk you through the process. I had to remove mine at least three times since new chasing another problem.

When it comes time to bleed the new slave, just attach a piece of clear plastic tube to the bleeder valve and put the other end in a container. Then loosen the bleeder valve and let the fluid flow naturally from the reservoir to the cylinder. When no air comes from the tube, tighten the valve and you are done. No need to use two people to bleed it. It will bleed itself naturally.

Have fun, and there will be more things to do. It took me about 5000 miles and one year of driving to work out and fix alll the kinks. When you finally get tired of that front end wheel balance problem, let me know.
