This procedure can be performed with master cylinder on or off vehicle.
CAUTION: Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces. Brake fluid can also damage electrical connections. Shop cloths and clean containers
should be used to prevent spillage of brake fluid.
1. Disconnect brake lines at master cylinder, if necessary.
2. Connect suitable lengths of brake lines to master cylinder and immerse other ends of lines in master cylinder reservoirs.
3. Apply master cylinder pushrod or brake pedal with full strokes until air bubbles have disappeared in reservoirs. It may require 20-30 applications
to fully eliminate air bubbles.
4. Remove bleeding lines from master cylinder, then install master cylinder on vehicle, if necessary, and connect brake lines.
5. Fill the reservoir. Normal bleeding procedures should be followed after the master cylinder is installed.
