The way I have found it to work best is to bleed the brakes from the brake cylinders themselves. To do this you must inject fluid into the bleeder valves and catch it as it runs out of the reservoir. Naturally, you'll do this one at a time. Years ago we used a TCP syringe with some slight modifications to deliver the fluid, but recently I've used the type of oiling can that requires a pumping action to get oil. I have a special one I use, so it is kept clean and nothing other than bake fluid goes through it. This action actually pushes air back
I forgot...my 'Bleeder #2" was also an oil can.
This has the advantage that it's also the best way to top up the
brake reservoir without also topping up your shoe.
