Hi can someone put me out of my Misery first Time Ever trying to Bleed breaks, after an hour realised maybe should have been using bleed nipple instead of lower banjo bolt, hour waisted oh well, another hour later finally built pressure after 5000+ squeezes no joke! was on right hand master cylinder was looking to get both calipers pistons out , have new ones were binding, 27;years old no harm, but was told to work on right caliper first & was the one I definitely knew was binding So Finally I could hear what sounded like a Piston Moving next thing heard dripping, Bike in Horse Box little Room noticed Resvouir Empty went around left , & only one Caliper on left came out, So what Gives , ? what Happened? Should I just try squirt some wd40 down sides of calipers force them out seen trick with a Socket that fits just inside them twist ?
