Help me out. How are they mounted ?? Flip them from side to side if you have the bleed nipples on the bottom. Air bubbles rise.. you'll NEVER get the air out with the bleed nipples facing down.

No, but you will certainly go through a lot of brake fluid trying. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
