You should always replace them at the same time, but basically you bench bleed your master cylinder. Install it then remove the slave by the two bolts attaching it to the bottom of the trans. Place new slave cylinder in and let the fluid gravity bleed through the bleeder screw on the slave cylinder after mostly fluid comes out pump the clutch a few times and have some one hold the clutch pedal down and open the bleeder 1/2 turn then close it then pump the pedal again and hold the pedal open the bleeder screw 1/2 turn. repeat this until the clutch is firm. on this particular car it is very easy you should only have to bleed it 2 or 3 times if you do it properly. but the slave is a bear to get at and is best gotten to on a lift with the cross-member removed good luck
Get your new master cylinder from the parts store and it should have instructions with it.
At least the slave cylinder. The clutch master cylinder can be replaced at any time.
You do not reset a master cylinder. You should bench bleed it before installing.
figure out how to change master clutch cylinder and slave cylinder,then bleed the system properly
master cylinders should be same abs works thru an electronic valve , usually away from master cylinder
it should not take more than 30 min. it's a fairly simple change over.

when should i change the timing belt on a mercury villager
First use the appropriate flare nut wrench to remove the brake lines from the master cylinder. Then remove any wiring connectors. Then remove the two nuts that hold the master cylinder to the brake booster and the master cylinder should come right off.
A master cylinder should be replaced when it can no longer provide the pressure needed for the brakes to operate. You can tell it is failing when the pedal becomes soft.
If it's a right hand drive, it's just to the left of the brake booster. There is a hose coming off the left of the brake master cylinder, follow that and you will get to the clutch master cylinder - it looks similar to the brake master cylinder but smaller. If it's a left hand drive, it should be the reverse.
