How hard is it to install a master cylinder on a 1993 Volvo with turbo? Im a girl so I need details.?

I just got this Volvo for $700, I love it and want to fix it up. I need to learn how to install a master cylinder, any help is greatly appreciated.|||The Volvo master cylinder should not be too difficult to change. You will need a number of mechanical tools like wrenches, sockets and screwdrivers. You should buy a new or rebuilt master cylinder before you start dis-assembly of the old one. As you take things apart, put the nuts, washers, and little pieces in a box or tray so you can be sure to put things back together correctly. When you have changed out the old M.C. you must add brake fluid and bleed the entire system of air. This usually requires the help of a second person to pump the brake pedal while you open and close the wheel cylinder bleeder screws. |||Make sure ur using correct brake fluid and also bleeding the mc is performed. A quick bleed of mc is to have another person pump up brakes,hold pedal down and slowly loosen the brake lines at the mc till pedal goes to floor. Repeat process to other line but besuretotightenfittingsbeforep鈥?
