How Do You Bleed The Brake System Of Air?
Air in your brake lines can lead to a sense of softness or mushiness when you apply your brakes. It lowers the effectiveness of your car and can increase the possibility of accidents if you have to stop quickly. Luckily, it’s possible to get the air bubbles out of your brake system without losing the fluid as well. Mechanics use a comparatively simple technique that requires only a basic knowledge of cars. Raise the hood on your car and add brake fluid to the brake fluid reservoir. You want to make sure there’s plenty of fluid in the system while you bleed out the air. Place a jack under the car and lift the tire off the ground. If you have access to a hydraulic lift, that’s even better. You should start with the rear wheels first and then work your way to the front. Loosen the lug nuts with a wrench and remove the tire. Set the lug nuts aside somewhere where you won’t lose them. Locate the caliber body behind the tire and remove the rubber cap from the bleeder screw. Set the cap aside
