Bleeding Brake Lines Question

[newagemuscle]

I'll be putting my calipers back on this evening after haveing them sent out for powder coating. I notice there are two bleeder screws. I don't know much about doing a brake job, but I thought calipers normally have one bleeder screw. Is this just because it is a larger caliper with more pistons... one bleeder for each side?

Thanks

Bleed the inside bleeder first then move to the outside.Just remember DO NOT let the matser cylinder run out of fluid.

I like to do the outer first, and then the inner, as they are the furthest away from the master/brake lines.

If they were powdercoated, then you might need to drive the car a little after the first bleeding/ gently tap the caliper with a rubber mallet to free some of the bubbles that will be trapped around the pistons. Then a second bleed just to get that final bit of air out of them.
