Icon6 Air in the brakes!!

Wuddup Fellas,
Just got done fixing a leak in my break lines. It seems as though the copper washers around the banjo nut were the wrong size and I replaced them, but now the brake pedal goes all the way to the floor. I'm assuming that this in fact air in the lines, but I was under the assumption this would only happen if you were to press on the brake pedal while the lines were disconnected. Can anyone help me out with a solution?

Umm, pick up a Haynes Repair Manual for your basic education and understanding of the vehicle, ( which u should). But knowing guys on here, you rather someone tell you the answer so.. "Bleed the brakes" already. And don't ask how, just pickup a Manual already.

Can anyone send me a thread with pics on bleeding the brake lines.

Thanks for the advice PHAT, I was just looking for a definite answer to my simple problem..As far as the repair goes I don't know if adding douche comments with brake fluid will help so let someone else respond.

No doucheness intented my friend. Sorry on my behalf if u took it the wrong way. But u have to bleed it, have someone pump the brakes and u open the bleed screw one at a time. Make sure to top off the fluid as u go. Start from the DR, PR, PF, DF. And pick up a manual hehe.

Haynes sucks. Join here and you can download any manual you want. The 96-00 manual is like 2200 pages.
