Run hoses from the output back to the mc.



Take a screwdriver, something like that and start pushing... that's one way.



Personally I like to mount it in the car, run the lines as described above back into the mc, then pump the brake pedal, either way do it until you don't see any air in the lines and yer done.

Mine came with little red caps in the holes. So I pushed a screwdriver in (handle against my stomach) and unplugged one hole at a time. Then used my finger while pumping, and plugging each hole back when I was doing the next one.

After bench bleeding the MC, install it, then bleed the entire system from the brake calipers.

you can't. Just buy some brake lines 3" long flared already from pep boys or some other checker store. There are only two ouput (3 if you have a non abs car), and get some clear tubing and run the brake fluid back to the reservoir.



Then install the thing, and start bleeding each corner of the car.
