A few tips for you, Jethro. 1) when it comes time to bleed the brakes, you can do it by yourself if you have long arms and good coordination. I did mine several times by pumping the hand brake or foot brake and holding it, then cracking the bleeder open. Just make sure you don't let go of the brake before you close the bleeder screw back up. Yes, it does make it easier with a helper but it isn't necessary. 2) You do not need to remove the right side body work. You can fit the 8mm wrench on the proportioning valve with no problems if you remove the little access cover and the plastic valve cover decorative piece. Again, use your clear tubing and connect it to the bleeder screw but pump the brakes with the foot pedal. Use the pump foot pedal, hold, crack open bleeder, close bleeder, release foot pedal technique. This alone will save you an hour in removing plastic bits. I did it this way about 5 different times and never once had a drop of brake fluid on the body work. 3) After I got done with everything, I had a great, firm pedal. I still went back through the entire sequence one more time just to make sure you get any remaining air that may be trapped. 4) Larry suggested to place a weight on the foot brake and tie the hand brake closed over night, do this...their are microscopic bubbles that will find their way back through the system and out the master cylinders. 5) Ditch the vacuum bleeder and do it old school. Pump and hold baby, pump and hold.
