I just popped on my newly remastered rear brake calipers from PMB and was wondering if there was a point to the lower bleeder? I only ever bothered with the top bleeder before but now that it's bone dry I was wondering if that might be why the second bleeder exists? I will be bleeding the brakes tomorrow morning.

Shoot, wish I had read Dave's comment earlier. Finished bleeding and drove her around for the first time this season. Nice to have rear brakes finally. And a functional emergency brake. I had seized pistons and obviously couldnt set the venting. PMB to the rescue. Now I am tempted to go back through the fronts and try the little drain trick to see what the fluid looks like in there.
Car ran great after sitting for 4 months. Did a little oil and filter change, all ready for summer! |
