Bench Bleeding Master Cylinder
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 10 other vehicles, including the 1991 Plymouth Sundance, 1991 Plymouth Acclaim, 1991 Dodge Spirit, 1991 Dodge Shadow, and 1991 Dodge Dynasty. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Bleed tubes must have a residual pressure check valve installed to keep tubes from siphoning brake fluid.
- Clamp master cylinder in vise at mounting flange. Install bleed tubes in outlet ports. See Fig 1 . Fill reservoirs with clean brake fluid so bleed tubes are below brake fluid level.
- Slowly compress and release piston assemblies until bubbles no longer appear in brake fluid. Remove tubes and plug master cylinder outlets to keep fluid from draining.
