Do you have abs on your vehicle? If so the modulator will probably need to be power bled if it has air in it.
If you don't have abs then the normal way of bleeding should work

Yes it is abs but I was told if you keep powered up you should be able to bleed it

Have you disconnected the pipes or replaced abs modulator? If it hasn't been touched then it shouldn't need to be power bled.

Doesn’t make any difference what engine the vehicle has, but my old school vehicles including RRc and now a D1 its the longest pipe first the the next and so on to end up with the shortest pipe at the master cylinder, vehicle now seems to be the reverse and shortest pipe first.
Ezzie Bleed caps in the kit may not have a tight fit that why they supply caps to fit exactly on some others vehicles as an option i did find a cap in the kit that fitted the perfectly on my Capri, but with the the RR and disco nope, so a bit of tube with a ball bearing arrangement on the end works fine hanging in jam jar
abs or no abs.
