fluid replacement sequence 200

ART: "There is a small cavity in the very end of the master beyond the outlet port that sits just a bit high, even with the car level, but moreso when you have the front jacked up to get at the bleed screws comfortably.


MY REPLY: Art, ok, if there is any problem for me then this is what it is. Everything else was done properly. I jacked up the rear end last night and did the LR then RR both twice until no more bubbles, just clear steady fluid. It got dark and late so I decided to finish today. I did not touch the brake pedal or do anything else, except DE-pressurize the pressure bleeder and system, and remove the tool. Today I was going to jack up the front and finish with RF upper, LF upper, then RF lower (both lower nipples at same time), LF lower (both lower nipples at same time). That is what I understand to do from the collective posts and FAQ at this site.

Do I need to De-pressurize after each wheel?

However, if you are correct about that MC end spot as a place for an air bubble, what I would ask you at this point (if a bubble is in the end of the MC) since I have not yet jacked up the front, what do you suggest? Can it be removed? Will pressure bleeding not remove it? Will it pass up into the reservoir itself? etc. , etc.?
