was reading through the section in my repair manual for BA to BF falcons, gonna be bleeding my system soon. Says this:
The ABS Brake System is bled the same way as a normal system, the only difference occurs when bleeding the modulator. The replacement modulators are filled with brake fluid, therefore system should only need standard bleeding. If the pedal is spongy after standard bleeding and it is suspected there is air in the modulator a service bleed using NGS tested should be carried out.

don't know if that is same for E series or not?

if you search google with
"NGS tested abs modulator"

the first link that comes up on Australian Ford Forums discusses this.

NGS is a Ford Special tool.....used to read codes and diagnose problems......before them was the CAM & SAM testers.......I think they use WDS now...?????
