hi there first time post
im replacing the front to rear brake pipe on a 1994 discovery tdi non abs and im wondereing if anyone knows of any tips or special procedures for bleeding the brakes ive noticed that there are 3 bleed nipples on each front caliper and 1 on each rear caliper any advice would be appreciated thanks
 
It is recommended that you bleed both nipples on the front caliper simultaneously but it is not really necessary.

If you have to bleed the whole system start from the calpiper furthest away from the master cylinder. Bleed the rear nearside , then the rear offside, then the front nearside and finally the front offside brakes.
 
thanks for the info
bled rear brakes as you suggested but used syringe kit to pump fluid/air back to master cylinder works a treat
bled front brakes but found i needed to bleed the 2 inside bleed nipples together then outside bleed nipple last on each front caliper using the usual method using brake pedal/hoses and jamjar
took time to heat all bleed nipples and free them off before starting to bleed the system and really pleased with outcome
pedal travel is minimal and brakes hard
thanks again for the reply
