It's not a difficult job for the "weekend warrior mechanic". To make it very easy get a pressurized brake bleeder. Do a quick search on Motive to learn more. When bleeding the brakes, start with the caliper farthest away from the master cylinder (rear passenger side) and bleed until the fluid is clear and there are no bubbles in the line. Repeat with the driver rear, passenger front, and driver front. Castrol Gt LMA is a good fluid. Its available at Pep Boys. |
