1. Now when you have some one pump up the brake pedal with 3-4 strokes then you bleed them they have to keep holding the pedal down until you close off the bleeder screw so it doesn't suck air back in when they let the pedal back up. 2. Another way to bleed them is to put a clear hose over the bleeder screw and the other end of the hose into a jar with about an inch of brake fluid in it. This way if any chance it would suck back it will suck brake fluid back in and not air. 3. One more way to bleed them is by putting the clear hose on the bleeder screw with the other end in the jar of brake fluid. Open the bleeder screw and let gravity flow the fluid and air thru. It takes a little longer but you'll be amazed. 4. Now I have seen people replace brake wheel cylinders and put the brake line on the top hole and the bleeder on the bottom hole of the wheel cylinder. You'll never get the air out of the cylinders this way. I saw a mechanic one time put on a set of brake calipers and he was in a hurry. He put them on the wrong side of the vehicle and that put the bleeder screw on the bottom side. He never could get the air out until I told him what he did wrong. Then he told me "I'd like to see you put the calipers on this fast". What an Idiot I thought. I know everything I have said here may make you feel dumb. I don't mean it that way. I thought if you never heard of bench bleeding a master cylinder you probably haven't worked on brake systems. Remember the brake system on any vehicle is the most important system on a vehicle. Don't splice brake lines with fuel line or hose. Don't have rubber hoses made up for a brake system. For one thing you won't see any one making rubber brake lines like they make hydraulic hoses on site at an auto parts store. Anywhere from 2,000-6,000 psi can be generated in a hydraulic brake system. It's always 2,000 +. Most people don't believe this. Brake lines are all special.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
