Thats what i've always done but a few people have told me now you start from the closest.
Just wondering what the logic in that way would be and if it is correct. |

Ford Workshop manual says to start from the furthest.
Also notes to NOT touch the brake pedal  |

yeah um how do you expect to expell the air bubbles if you don't pump fluid through the system
and you work from the left rear , right rear , left front , right front thats what i was taught |

what was said in previous topic.
and ur ment to pump the pedal, in ef/el ford manual. and i think its basically the same system.
open nipple push brake close nipple and release brake, repeat until new fluid arrives. |

Well are you going to suck the air out?
Now brake fluid certainly ain't beer!
