RE: [T3] MC/brake lines


<x-charset iso-8859-1>Speaking as someone with the worst track record
for brake bleeding, I finally came up with a
technique that is easy, cheap, visible, makes
sense, and works.

Use a LONG hose attached to the bleed nipple and
run the hose UP immediately and over the tire to
a handy glass jar.  The bubbles we are all trying
get rid of go UP and away from the nipple so they
won't get sucked back into the cylinder.  With the
line on the outside of the tire, you can see it
easier.  Let gravity start the process and fill the
lower end of the tube before pumping the brakes.
