Revised: I hate bleeding brakes

[megaladon6]

on systems that got run dry and don't want to gravity bleed, i've found that if you leave the top off of the M/C and SLOWLY press the pedal about half way down, then let up SLOWLY you can get the fluid flowing nicely without sucking air in. you might have to do it a couple of times and if you step down too fast it will make one hell of a mess. i always make sure i can see the fluid when i do it. then you just let it gravity bleed.
if you still have the stock proportioning valve you probably have to push in (or is it pull out?) the pin on the front side to allow full flow to the rear.
