Brake Bleeding

Use a pressure pump to bleed the brakes, don't try to do it the old way with the brake pedal. About 15-20 pounds of pressure.

Brake Bleeding

Too messy, takes too long, and can empty the fluid reservior in short order. They also introduce air bubbles to the brake line. Don't even bother.

I bought a bleeder pump from IPD and it works great. The pump holds enough fluid to flush the entire system.
