Re: Eeibleed system 240-260 1987

ICQ>



I have NOT tried the IPD system but have tried a similar

vacuum device and it didn't work very well for me.

What did work well was to take an old brake line,

put a hole in a spare master cylinder cap that the

threaded portion would fit through, put nuts and washers

on both sides (inside and outside) tight enough to seal,

and apply about 15 - 20 psi compressed air to the reservoir,

making sure that both parts always have plenty of fluid in

them. (If one runs out, you get to start over.)

Then you can bleed in the normal sequence and the

pressure stays constant on both sides so your isolation

valve doesn't activate and confuse you.

This is a homemade version of a device shown in

some factory manuals. Sure beats pump, hold, let go,

pump again, etc.
