Brake Fluid Woes...

[scottychop]

Getting time to finish up my build. I put my dry MC and lines on today then tried to put new fluid in my MC and brake lines. NO GO. How the hell do you get the damn fluid to feed down to the caliper? I know I've done this a few times before and for the life of me cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. I tried ever combination of adjuster loose/tight, cap on/off while pumping the handle. Can anyone point me to an article or website that is more than just bleeding a full system? I have heard of using a syringe to push or pull fluid, but the ten stores I went to today didn't have anything. Tricks?

Fill the reservoir, open the bleeders, go eat dinner or have a few beers. Check occasionally to ensure the reservoir stays full. It should slowly ooze down the lines until the calipers are full of fluid.

You have to bleed the master first, then hook up hose and bleed. (use fingers to cover opening, hook up caliper and put hose on the bleeder screw and into a container with enough B fluid to cover the hose end and bleed some more until there are no air bubbles and fluid is clear
