OK, got everything buckled up yesterday on the brakes, and this morning I was setting out to bleed the entire system. Master cylinder then wheel cylinders and finally calipers. So I posted last nite complaining that the brake warning light connector was hard to remove (thinking I would be bench bleeding the master cylinder). But shit, I completely overlooked the fact that Ford made a provision for bleeding the MC! There's a friggin' bleed screw right on the side of the MC!! I took the thing off, had it in my vice and even had the M10 fittings screwed in! But then I saw the bleeder screw! Anyway, put it back on the car, and bled it right there.
Here's the question:
Does everyone here go with bleeding the MC using the supplied bleed port? I ask that because I've never owned a car or truck that has one of these. My 95 Impala SS, 96 Roadmaster, 74 F100, 77 F150, and 98 Chevy Suburban all don't have bleeder screws. My 2008 Suburban may have one, but I haven't had to put on an MC and haven't paid it any mind. I seemed to see bubbles, 1 or 2, even after 8-10 cycles. I told my son to push down very slow and seemed to subside.
