In addition, prior to bleeding the furthest from the master first...bleed the
master cylinder first (or bench bleed); can be bench bled installed in the
car....
Don't bleed on the newly painted engine compartment unless you are using
silicone blake fluid (my preference for the Tiger)....{insert discussion about
fluid preference here}............
Happily bled thousands
