Manual Bleeding

NOTE: Manual bleeding not recommended on Chrysler Corp. models.

Fill master cylinder, install bleeder hose and glass jar to bleeder valve as in pressure bleeding (above). Unscrew bleeder valve 3/4-1 turn. Depress brake pedal a full stroke, then allow pedal to return to released position.

CAUTION: If pedal returns quickly, air will be drawn into system.

Repeat this operation until fluid flowing from bleeder valve into glass jar is free of air bubbles, then close bleeder valve and proceed to other cylinders in proper sequence. See "BLEEDING SEQUENCE " below.

NOTE: Check fluid level in master cylinder frequently during bleeding operation to insure that air will not enter system.

Refill master cylinder to proper level.
