I tried bleeder hoses and the like but I found
a better way, what is needed is a screw driver or
a piece of 2x4 or ?? of the right length. The
length is the distance from the bottom edge of
the dash to the brake pedal after it has been
pumped a few times. Here is what I do.
1. Fill the master cylinder
2. Pump the brake pedal to build pressure
3. Hold the brake pedal down and place the screw
driver or 2x4 or what ever between the bottom
edge of the dash and the brake pedal.
4. Let the pedal up and it will hold the driver
in place
5. Go to the wheel and open the bleeder
6. Close bleeder and repeat on other wheels.
