Hydraulic System Bleeding
CAUTION:
DO NOT spill brake fluid on painted surfaces. To avoid paint damage, immediately clean any spilled brake fluid with a clean cloth and clear water.
Fill master cylinder with clean brake fluid. Fluid should meet DOT 3 specifications. Bleed brake calipers in following sequence: LF, RF, RR, LR. Have someone slowly pump brake pedal several times, then apply steady pressure. Loosen bleed screw to allow air to escape system. Tighten bleed screw to specification. Refill the reservoir on the master cylinder to the MAX (upper) level line. Recheck fluid level.
NOTE:
