Brake Bleeding: Service and Repair
Base Brake System Bleeding
Air Trapped In Brake System
NOTE: When bleeding the brake system some air may be trapped in the brake line or valving far upstream, sometimes as much as ten feet from the
bleeder screw. Therefore it is absolutely essential to have a fast flow of a large volume of brake fluid when bleeding the brakes to ensure the system is
purged of all air bubbles.
