I'm putting in ATE Superblue and also going to install Speedbleeders . The instructions for them seem pretty simple but I got a couple of questions

1. Is it correct that I should keep the reservoir cap on during the bleeding process, and only removing it to add more fluid?

2. If I fill the reservoir to the max, will there be enough fluid so that I'll be able finish bleeding one corner before having to refill it?

3. Will brake fluid spray out when I remove the stock bleeder screws? (I just wanna be prepared to catch it)

TIA!

 

good luck

 

thanks for the help, but I'm wondering about the bleeding sequence. My helms manual tells me to go front driver, front pass, rear pass then rear driver?

 

1. You don't need to keep the reservoir cap on
2. Yea, just keep your hood open and check on it every few brake pedal pushes
3. No, it'll drip out in drips first then pour out. Use a brake line clamp on the brake line.

Hope that helps.

 

There really is no right way to do it. But the criss cross pattern is done for safety reasons. Racers that road race do it. It's done in the unlikely event that should any one of your brakes goes out (calipers or whatever), when you brake, the car still brakes in a straight line. As opposed to having one side of your car pull to the side that has the strongest braking force, and possibly losing control.
If you feel more comfortable doing it the helms way, that's fine too
