As my left hand rear brake hose burst last night I'm going to have to spend part of today replacing it.
I know there is a correct sequence for bleeding brakes but I can't remember it. Can someone enlighten me please.

If I were you, I would ring your local Ford dealer and ask if your vehicle has had it done. The hoses aren't dear but at least the delaer can do it for you NO CHARGE.

They told me it was only the sedans the wagons were ok. I'm guessing they bullsh**ted to me.  Too late now I can't drive it over there anyway, I was lucky to get it home

when doing furtherst away to closest , you must take into consideration the location of the abs unit

ABS is on the left side of the car. Looking at the brake lines, the right rear is feed from the left rear making it the furthest
