Bleeding Brake System: Notes

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2004 Mazda B4000, 2004 Mazda B3000, 2004 Mazda B2300, 2003 Mazda B4000, and 2003 Mazda B3000. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

CAUTION: Do not allow the reservoir to run dry during air bleeding. Do not spill brake fluid onto painted surfaces. If spilled, wipe it off immediately.

NOTE: When any part of the hydraulic system has been disconnected for repair or replacement, air can get into the system and cause spongy brake pedal action. This requires bleeding of the hydraulic system after it has been properly connected. The hydraulic system can be bled manually or with pressure bleeding equipment.
