Time for brakes!
Did the initial servicing of the brake system today after routing my lines yesterday. Pumped fluid in from the bottom caliper bleed valve which then flowed thru the park brake valve, right side brakes slave cylinders and out to just below the top of the pilot side master cylinders. Went easy after I figured out the park brake valve. Suggest you put it at 90 degrees to fill...then there is no doubt it will allow passing the brake fluid as you pump it from the bottom. I initially tried a hand vac bleeding tool to vacuum up from the bottom brake fluid supply bottle. Wasn't going to happen!
