Nice videos they will be helpful for sure, I do have one question. I have the separate reservoir for my system that I installed, how much fluid is pumped out when you bleed the system? In other words is there enough fluid in the small separate reservoir or is it going to have to be topped off during the bleeding process? Thanks again!

Dan

Yes This is one of the things i forgot to mention, your going to have to keep checking your resevoir fluid level. you will need to add more fluid as you bleed. Good question

OK I have another one for you. I have a pump up style power bleeder. If I get a cap that fits my reservoir and modify it to hook up to the bleeder can I bleed the system that way or do I still need to run thru the procedure of pumping the pedal? Thanks

If you have a power bleeder that will pressure the resevoir yes you can try it that way. you may still need to do a few pumps to finish it up. I didn't include that in the video because i didn't want to confuse anyone.

I couldn't believe it, they quoted me a price of $440.00. He said it was a 4 hour job, I'm guessing they are doing it blindfolded if it takes them 4 hours.

Yep I figure I should have the whole thing done in an hour, and I've never done one before. I couldn't believe it either, he said the warranty work time shows 4 hours, and they wonder why none of us want them touching our cars.
