I'll check all available systems then!
Mezo's sequence:
1) Loosen bleeder
2) Push pedal and hold it
3) Tighten bleeder
4) Release pedal and again 1) and so on.
And checking fluid reservoir level, refilling when necessary. This one looks really appropriate when I did it.
Your sequence, to try is as well:
1) Push pedal (and hold it, I assume)
2) Loosen bleeder
3) Very quickly tighten it
4) Release pedal... and again 1) and so on.
Is that right? Reservoir cap always out, since we'll be refilling, I assume.
Question: no syringes at all? Because stupide me I forgot to control fluid level and let lots of air to get in the 1st time!
