Brake Bleeding
I posted earlier this week I'd try a bleed process I found out in general population. I don't mean to steal his thread, just let ya'll know how it worked out after putting on a braided line to the rear.
Using a NEW small hand pump oil can with a length of tubing tween the can and the bleeder, I pushed the fluid from the caliper back to the cylinder. That took bout 2 mins. Now maybe I did something wrong, but I then bled the brake normally to get a good pedal. Took about 20 mins total. Took 2 hrs when I did the front last fall the old way.
Slicker than oil on an ice cube!
