On my -55 sedan I've got all new brake-hoses & brake-cylinders; master & wheels & yesterday I started fill brake-fluid & bleed them all by myself.
Like this:
I put a wrench & hose from the bleeder-valve & then pump the pedal & block it with a long enough wood against the seat, then I open the valve & close it & then the same again until it seems to be alright, all 4 wheels.
Still the pedal would hit bottom at 1:st try & after 3-4 pumpings it's good.
So then I did it the other way that I never done it before: from the rear to the front, thinking "maby that helps 'cause the car's got the master cylinder under the floor...?"
No difference.
So today the same thing again (but with my wife doing the pumping) - front to rear & rear to front & guess what?
Exactly: No change at all.
Maby it's like the hippies says: "it's a sign maaan..." ...that I'm not supposed to stop when I start driving with it?
