[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 1025677, member: 52972"] I've been doing brakes and pumping the pedal for over 40 years and never encountered any problem with brake seals leaking. The only trick to flushing the fluid is to not let the Master Cylinder reservoir run empty.....so keep checking it every few pumps of the pedal. By the way...You don't "Drain the old fluid"...you force it out as you pump in the fresh fluid...when you see clean fluid coming out the bled nut...your job is done on that wheel. Start at the farthest wheel from the master cylinder and move to the next closest wheel. That would mean you should bleed the brakes in this order: RR, LR, RF, LF ...Richard [/QUOTE]
