To bleed the system, fill the reservoir with silicone fluid and then move to the right rear caliper. It's important to start at the furthest point from the master cylinder so you get the majority of the old fluid out on the first bleed. Watch the color of the escaping fluid carefully. When it matches the new fluid, you'll know you've bled all the old fluid out of that line and caliper. Check the reservoir and refill as necessary, then move on to the next-furthest caliper (the left rear) and repeat the process. Next, work on the right front (where Phil is currently bleeding) and then the driver-side front to finish. Recheck the reservoir and carefully refill to the top line. Go back and make sure all bleeding screws are tight. View Related Article
