Went through faq's and how to's and still don't see how to bleed the brakes!
Went through faq's and how to's and still don't see how to bleed the brakes!
I remember some one saying use a container and a tube to get the air out but what kind of tube?Also im thinking starting from right rear then lfet rear then right front then left front anything else i should know?Also i just changed my right front spindle that had abs in which my car did not!Will this make a big factor since my brakes fell really soft and hard to stop?

An ABS hub will work on a non ABS car. The only diff. is the cut out for the sensor which you don't need. If the hub comes with a sensor on it, just cut the wire and leave the sensor in place.
Bleed your brakes with a buddy. Have them press and hold the brake pedal while you release the pressure and air through the bleed valve. Then close the bleed valve and release the brake pedal. Repeat this until the fluid runs clean of any air. An easier way to bleed brakes yourself is with a hand held vacuum pump brake bleeder. You can find them at most auto parts stores. Make sure your master cylinder never runs dry while you bleed. It really doesn't matter which wheel you start from, yet some say start from the furthest away which would be the right rear.
