Manual Bleeding

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1996 Isuzu Rodeo and 1996 Honda Passport. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Start engine and let idle. Clean master cylinder cap and surrounding area, then remove cap. Fill master cylinder. Install clear vinyl bleed hose onto first wheel cylinder or caliper bleed screw to be serviced. See BRAKE BLEEDING SEQUENCE  . Place remaining end of hose in a clean transparent container.
  2. Partially fill container with clean brake fluid so end of hose is submerged in fluid. Slowly pump brake pedal 3 times and hold depressed. Loosen bleed screw until fluid flows through tube.
  3. Close bleed screw, then release pedal. Pump pedal slowly several times to push air toward wheel cylinders or calipers. Repeat procedure until flow of brake fluid is clear and bubble free. Repeat procedure for each wheel.
NOTE: Check fluid level in master cylinder frequently during bleeding sequence. Fluid level must remain at least half full at all times.
