Default Re: Brake System Flush

well you are going to want to watch it for when fluid comes out.

this basically just turns this from a 2 person job to a 1 person.. thats all. you will still need to watch and listen. if you are using a tube, it will sound like sucking soda up in a straw when there is only a little left at the bottom of the cup.
you should be able to see it as well if the tube is clear.

dont get the impression you can loosen the valve, hook the tube up and pump the brakes a few times and be done. while you might be able to do that..its best to watch the fluid come out. if its coming out in spurts, or bubblely, there is still air int he system, and you need to keep pumping. when it starts coming out solid fluid every pump, then your good to close the valve off.

now, if you are getting a sucking in sound as it is sucking in air.. tighten the valve a little until it goes away when you pump. you only have to open the vavle a little to open it up.

you most likely will end up just like me when i did mine. kneeling outside the vehicle and pumping the brakes while watching the fluid come out under the vehicle. im not saying there isnt a better way.. im just saying this is the way that worked for me, and i am able to be confident that the system got bled properly.
