Ok I am surprised to be having to ask how to bleed the breaks on my 92 disco 1. I have bleed many car brakes before with no problems. I have just replaced the front brake hoses and one fixed line to the master cylinder. I then topped up master cylinder and went to bleed brakes, allthough i didnt think they would need it i blead the back brakes, fluid came through almost immediatly. Then started on the front, first thing I noticed was 3 blead nipples...interesting.... but not be put off I blead each nipple till fluid came through with no air. There did not seam to be much pressure on the outside nipple??? but some fluid never the less. So then set about doing a road test, pedal to the floor, and brakes just about functioning, any ideas? Suspect poor work on my bleed effort, do the calipers have any qwerks related to the 3 nipples?
Thanks in advance for any tips, I would really like to be able to stop again with the pedal as its a long way to the road to drag your feet! Thanks Jim
