I rebuilt the master cyl and wheel cylinders on my '48 3600. Thought the bleeding process would be pretty straight forward. Fill the master resevoir, open the farthest bleed valve, and start pumping until fluid came out the farthest bleed valve. Them, move closer until all four wheel cylcinders have been bled. Any advice for a guy who has never done this before? My wife's leg is worn out from all the pumping! I disconnected the brake line at the master cylinder (original single stage) to see if fluid would pump out. It does, but only in a trickle. thanks for any advice. Didn't see anything on this in the archived posts.
