Bleeding is easy......Make sure you keep resovior topped up as your doing it....Put a clear hose over bleeder & into a small jar.....Pump up lever till firm.....While keeping pressure on lever open bleeder slowly......You will here & feel the fluid & air escaping....when lever bottoms out close bleeder & release lever.......Repeat till you have firm lever & nice clean fluid coming out........You now have done two things......Bled & flushed the system of all old dirty fluid.
