This Florida sun is kickin' my A**!!!



I need advice on what is procedure to bleed front calipers on 99 ABS. Manual talks about valve in engine compartment or helper in thruck. What does helper (Wife. . he, he,) do!



Also, left rear drum cylinder is barely dribbling flid even with bleader out of hole. Is it New cylinder time?



Thanks as always.

Very simple ,start with the wheel furthest away from the master cylinder. put a clear piece of tubing on the bleeder so you can see the air bubbles, then crack open the bleeder get your wife in the truck and have her slowly push on the brake peddle till it goes all the way to the floor then have her hold it there till you tighten the bleeder. Have her then let up on the peddle, continue this cycle till no more air bubbles flow out hose. keep an eye on the master cylinder filling it between cycles. Hope this helps
