FILLER/BLEEDER CONNECTION TO MASTER CYLINDER
General Procedures
a. Check for leaks at all line, hose, and cylinder connections you made
on the vehicle.
b. Bleed units in the following order: master cylinders (some have
bleeder screws), booster or power units, line bleeder screws, and,
finally, all wheel cylinders.
c. Refer to Figure 72.
Attach the bleeder hose, part number B75 or
B5156, to each bleeder screw in turn and insert the open end of the
hose into the bottom of a glass container.
The end of the hose
should be submerged in the fluid. Open the screw to permit all air
to escape.
Watch for air bubbles in fluid for a positive check.
When fluid flows clear without air bubbles, close the bleeder screw
and tighten it securely.
