Brake Bleeding

[Mball37]

Hi

Looking to bleed my brakes today have a sealed pressure bleeder car is a 2002 corolla t sport any idea on what at PSI I should apply so the abs pump / master cylinder won't bleed dry...

Normally you use the pressure specified in the bleeders instructions, but you don't mention what make yours is.

I have the Gunson one and its has 20psi max pressure.

won't bleed dry...

Assume they all will if you don't keep an eye on the reservior level, though perhaps some better makes have a fluid level sensor /auto cut offf ?

Sealey vs820 is the model i have purchased instructions state refer to manufacture ...great help

Blender goes to 20 psi and more... just don,t want to break any seals or bleed dry..

[Mball37]

Instructions state do not exceed 20 psi

Mine was home made with a pressure gauge, I went with the 15psi, worked like charm.

Thats got a big container so you will need a good bit of fluid in there just to cover the suck up pipe, so get plenty of fluid to do the job, find I always use more than 1 ltr. ( I probably over bleed )

Worthwhile getting one of those cheap brake nipple push on rubber and plastic pipes so you can aim the spent fluid into a container
