wilko Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 i thought i d put this for those of you that don t know how to bleed there brakes and they might want to do it instead of paying the money to get it done by a shop or someone.step 1 you first need to adjust your tpa right down to the bottom so the lever pulls in as far as it will go.step 2 you then take the bolt out of the caliper.step 3 you then set up the syringe by putting the pipe on the end .you then pump the syringe full of blood and get rid of an ar bubbles this is vital.step 4 you then screw the syringe pipe into the caliper and on the lever loosen the bolt there so it lets the old blood out.you may want to put a jug under this.step 5 you then pump the blood through until you see new blood coming out the other endstep 6 you then need to screw the lever bolt back in and pump to get it as pressurized as you can so the bleed is a god one.step 7unscrew the syringe out of the caliper and the put the caliper bolt back in and adjust the tpa to were you want itthis is only a quick bleed but i use it all the time and it works a dream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Nugent Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 Argh! I know you are only trying to help but this is another pointless topic. There are too many guides to bleeding brakes around, just use the search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
