The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Driveline Yet another brake bleeding question

Tiny,

Sorry I didn't make it clear. My wife pumps three times before I crack open the bleeder valve. I close the valve quickly before my wife looses pressure on the brake pedal. (Repeat as necessary to get the air out.)

I also neglected to say that our little break dance, (pun intended), is interrupted every 10 repetitions to make sure I haven't drained the master cylinder's reservoir. If you do suck it dry, you have to start all over again. (Been there, etc...)
