you will have to bleed last.

disconnect the lines and plug/cap them.

make sure no dirt ANYWHERE near them.

make sure no brake fluid on your skin either!

get a Haynes manual if you dont have one... cheap and easy reference for simple stuff.

yeah i have one and was looking through it. I was only worried about when i go to take the brake lines out, if they will squirt, because the system is under pressure...

nah, the brake system is NOT under pressure, that is what your right foot is for...

it will flow out due to gravity.
