Person A....
Open door
sit in seat
when told, push foot brake down steadily and hold it down.
then, with foot brake down, steadily pull handbrake and hold it there.
when told, release the handbrake, and then the footbrake.
Relax.
Repeat when told.


Person B
Lay on floor, open rear driver's side caliper bleed screw.
Tell person A to push the pedal, then pull handbrake.
When they are holding both brake devices, tighten the bleed screw.
Tell person A to release the brake devices.
When person A has released them, loosen the bleed screw again and tell person A to operate the devices again.

Repeat this process a few times until the fluid spurts out a nice solid stream of fluid, not pissing, no bubbles, no spitting. Clamp bleed screw and move to rear passengers's side. Repeat the process.

yeah this is how i did it.


and i did swap the lines and it was much worse. they are definitely on correct.



i am going to try a 5/8" cylinder... the one on it now is a 3/4"
