Drum is going on this morning and I'm going to start the process over again.

Once again.....you fill the master.....pump the pedal.....and turn off the speed bleeder as you refill the master and then turn on the bleeder while I pump the pedal again ? Am I getting that correct ? It's 33º here now and I hope I don't have to start drinking again this morning !!

Thx much..... Mike
With the Speed bleeder open, pump the pedal 2-3 times, close the bleeder. (do this just once)
You should not have to add brake fluid at this point but check it and add if necessary.

NOW go to opposite side and do the same.
