Pressure Bleeding
NOTE:
Pressure bleeding equipment must be of diaphragm type. It must have a rubber diaphragm between air supply and brake fluid to prevent air, moisture and other contaminants from entering hydraulic system.
- Fill master cylinder section of reservoir to approximately half full with new brake fluid. Install Bleeder Adapter (J-35360) on Powermaster. Charge bleeder ball to 20-25 psi (1.4-1.6 kg/cm2 ).
- Connect line to adapter. Open line valve and depress bleed-off valve on top of adapter until a few drops of fluid appear. Raise vehicle. Attach bleeder hose to bleeder valve and submerge opposite end in clean container partially filled with brake fluid.
- Open bleeder valve 1/2 to 3/4 turn and allow fluid to flow until no air is seen in fluid. The sequence is: right rear, left rear, right front, and left front. After bleeding, tighten brake line connectors to 10-15 ft. lbs. (13.6-20.3 N.m).
