[T3] My brakes have no bleeders! :P


<x-flowed>Hey, another question. I went to bleed the brakes on my '67 square the other day and came across something very strange. There are no bleeders! Someone in the past apparently replaced the rear bleeders with allen screws (as far as I can tell... I wasn't able to get the screws clean enough at the time to confirm that that's what they were.. but there's a button head in the same spot that my Bentley book shows a bleeder to be on the rear cylinders). I can obviously put bleeders back there again, but on the front disks I can't find any bleeders ANYWHERE - even any screws or anything! There's just the hose going in and that's it! Where should I look? The brakes work well - on the first pump the pedal goes nearly to the floor, but if you lift it and push again it's pretty firm. I can tell a simple bleeding would make them work great.
