So I jsut received my rear disc conversion from tap Recycling... I am going to put it on Friday night.

Question: How hard is it to bleed the brake system? is it hard? If its not too hard, can some one let me know how to do it?

Thanks a lot

Jeremy

So if it sticks, try to avoid letting it go to the floor on subsequent bleedings. 

And lasly, if you buy a big bottle of brake fluid, make sure you squeeze all the air out of it before you store it.


Good tips. I bleed my brakes a few times a year, so maybe that is why I haven't encountered the sticking.

I don't typically store any unused fluid because of the moisture problem you described. The blue stuff is more of a gimmick than anything (though it does have a good boiling point), and it is expensive. Like you said, it is just a matter of prefernces. I switch between that stuff and regular stuff (which is about 2 bucks a quart) so I just toss out anything unused.

I wasn't really thinking about things in that light, so thanks for chiming in, Speed.
