Chevrolet Repair: Bleeding brakes, bleeding brakes, vacuum pump


Question
I just replaced the rear end on my 98 blazer.
when I tried to bleed the brakes no fluid comes out.
Is there another bleeder on the system that needs to be bled first?


Answer
Hi Richard, Yes this bleeding can be slow. Just open the bleeders and pump just  the top part of the pedal. You will also need to wait like 10 seconds between pumps with the pedal at the top. If you had a vacuum pump and a clear hose you could also put the hose to the vac pump on the bleeder and suck on it until the fluid gets there. I don't think this will be necc.

Hope this helps
