Tim to bleed the system with a small hose a jar and no other equipment,
connect the hose to the bleeder valve (You can use a tywrap to secure the
hose to the bleeder valve) and pre fill the hose with fluid and let all the
air rise to the top.  If the hose is long enough, place the end of it in the
reservoir.  If you are alone and want to see what you are doing, route the
hose to pass where you can see it.  If you don't have a long hose use a
second person and a jar.  Open the bleeder valve, but only just enough for
fluid to come out.  Get in and start to slowly pump the brake for the
caliper you connected.  Pump until there are no more bubbles in the hose.
If you use a second person and a jar, don't forget to keep refilling the
reservoir.  If using the long hose, the reservoir should stay full.  Make
sure that the hose does not come out of the reservoir.  Do the same to the
second caliper.  I have used this method on the most stubborn Piper
Aircraft, usually the ones with a parking brake and dual brakes.  Good Luck,

P.S. Call me so that I can come see the plane.
