Ok I am doing this tonight.
You know I was abit nervous before.
Now after the Revs. email, I am even more nervous, if I screw up I'll be the biggest moron in class and everyone will pick on me.

Oh the pressure.

I'll let you know how it goes, I should have plenty of info now.
Thanks

I dunno about me teaching grade school.... I think the kids might cry if I see them do something wrong and yell at them "What the f*ck is wrong with you?! My dog can build an engine better than you! Are you retarded or something?! Will someone drag this dumb 'tard over the special ed room so that the rest of us can be in a room without morons?!"

You get the point... might not go over very well... I'm not a very patient person.

Pushing too hard on the pedal can cause some probs in overextending elements of the master cylinder.

For bleeding, i have 2 tools:
1) Mityvac - uses vacuum to pull out the fluid
2) Phoenix Systems - can either reverse flush up to the MC, or out the caliper (there are some opinions it is better to reverse flush). I have had no probs with either approach on my S2K or Acura TL. Or the many Vettes for that matter.

Just did mine, switched from DOT 3 to Motul DOT 4 and replaced the hoses w/stainless. Everything went according to plan and I was feeling pretty darn good about myself until I read The Rev's post.
