Hi all

I have bought a gunson self ezibleed kit, along with a spare wheel/tyre from a scrap yard.

I am going to bleed the brakes thoroughly this week any tips?

I have also bought some brake fluids from my local motor factors giving full details of the car, they supplied me DOT 4 fluid that is Synthetic. Is this okay?

Finally what torque do I set for my wheel nuts, and is this best achieved in stages.

Any help is most welcome.

although there is no definitive method of bleeding the brakes in the manual, I have always started at the furthest point from the master cylinder, seems to work best for me anyway

you do not want huge pressure in the bleeder about 7-10 PSI is enough

wheel nuts are 90 Lbs/Foot
