Swapping out brake bleeder screws
Hi All,
I finally got speedbleeders for my Si of which I plan on installing with
fresh brake fluid this weekend. My question is can I replace each screw and
bleed it one corner at a time in one step or do I need to replace all 4
bleed screws and go back and bleed them again. I'm wondering if totally
removing/replacing the 2nd screw in a single L/R channel blows the bleed for
the 1st in the same channel. Hopefully this makes sense. Thanks!

Re: Swapping out brake bleeder screws
Fill the master cylinder, start at the wheel furthest from the master
cylinder, replace bleeders one at a time, then go back and bleed furthest
from the master cylinder, working your way to the master cylinder,keeping an
eye on the fluid level, this is how I would do it.
