How to Bench Bleed a Brake Master Cylinder - EASY!

- This is exactly how to bench bleed a brake master cylinder. Purging your brake master cylinder is a vital step to installing any master cylinder on any automobile. If you don't follow these steps it is very likely that your brakes will not function when you put everything back together.
If your vehicle is equipped with ABS you might need to do an ABS purge on top of this which I will be doing a video on that very soon.

In my opinion, this ranks in the 'top 5%' of the videos on this topic . . . quality information delivered by a knowledgeable individual. Kudos to the creators.
Appreciate that!
I leave the tubes on, tape them to the cover and install the master, then remove each fitting one at a time to minimize the mess.
This channel by far has taught me more than alot of kther channels combined, so in depth and nice and clear video
Great to hear! Thanks for watching!
Well executed tutorial. Thank you and all the best from New Rochelle N.Y.
Glad it was helpful!
Love the the clarity in this video 👍👍
Yay, thank you!
Good job. Thanks for the great information,
Great video, thanks!
Great Video again! Damn, that is one clean engine bay. Probably could eat off it too.
It's brand new! :) Thanks for watching Shawn!
Excellent. Thorough. Well done.
Thank you kindly!
Good video
Nice looking build!
Thanks!
Thanks for teaching 🙏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
It's my pleasure!
Great tips
Glad you think so!
Thanks for the tutorial lad, I heard I was supposed to do this but didn't know what this meant.
No problem 👍
Hey Ryan, thanks for the good video!
Thanks for watching!
You start from the back passinger line, the move to the left rear. Moving to the right front and moving to front driver. That is why they put bleeder vavles on each brake.
Everybody knows that
Actually, the front half and back half of that brake system are totally separate systems, it doesn't make any difference what order you bleed these brakes. Just repeat bleeding from side to side and one wheel at a time.
@@jamesklinski3890obviously the guy making the video don’t know that plus I saw a bunch of air in the line when he said he was done bleeding the master lol
@@dkevvvYeah, thats something thats been drilled into our brains since we were kids working on cars back in the day but like you say there are actually some cars out there where its not done like this, they are separate systems.
I have a question and super great video by the way, i have a master cylinder that has your normal 2 ports like any other one HOWEVER it has a 3rd port on the bottom,i believe this port has nothing to do with the dual plungers inside the master cylinder,its just a outlet port that goes to the driver side caliper, whats the procedure then to bench bleed this? cap that port solid or install a third fitting and a third hose? thank you for your time and input!
Could you plug the ends where the tubes are if you were doing the bench bleed somewhere else?
My dog always cleans up after me 😊
You can compress a fluid but not necessarily a liquid. Air is a fluid.
at 3:00 what size threat is that on the fitting? like 1/4 in mip or npt?
👍Fairy Good
Thanks for watching!
where is the egts sensor of Mercedes Benz ml 320 1998
Unfortunately most companies stopped including that excellent type of bleed kit, now they just give you the crappy plugs. You could build lines though
Thanks. So I’ve had to replace whole abs system, all 4 calipers. After have done caliper bleed and have no bubbles in brake lines. But when engine is on brake goes to floor vs. off I have firm pedal. Can air go in master cylinder if all 4 calipers replaced and abs? Also after bench bleed guessing air would re-enter lines again since I’ve bled it?
You probably need to bleed the abs unit. You can do it with a scanner that offers abs bleeding function to pump air out of the abs unit
Very good video man
Thankyou so much,now where can i buy those plastic nuts?
Thanks again
The fittings? Left a link down in the description. Thanks for watching!
I know this is a old comment but it might benefit someone reading it later, instead of waiting for the kit from Amazon, Advance auto parts (if you have it in your area) does carry this kit, its like 15 bucks but it has just about everything you need, PART NUMBER 14151, hope this helps.
If they have fitting caps that would save rhe day
I have a 1967 Chevy Camaro with original front disc brakes and rear drums I recently upgraded my rearend to a dana now I have rear wilwood disc brakes and my master cylinder cap keeps leaking do I have to upgrade my master cylinder I have also changed the cap and gasket and it keeps leaking Thanks
Yeah you need a front and rear brake master. It is different than a front disk and rear drum. Thanks for watching!
I replaced my master cylinder with one from cpp just like yours and it keeps leaking do I have to replace the brake booster or do I have to adjust the rod that pushes the piston can there be too much pressure being built in the diaphragm
All you have to do is rinse or spray water on the painted surface anytime you think you got fluid on it. The fluid will absorb the moisture and be neutralized
Yeah definitely. Just best to avoid it entirely if you can. Thanks for watching!
pro tip...just leave the plastic adapters in and swap the tubes for black rubber caps.
After bench bleeding the MC and disconnecting the plastic fittings/tubing from it to install it back on the car, how do I make sure no air goes back in it through the ports the plastic fitting were on before?? Common sense would tell me the own fluid weight will prevent air from coming in, but just wanted to make sure.
That's correct. Thanks for watching!
i used a clear tube too long..because all I had was a stiff one and i had to get it to get in the cylinder.I NEVER GOT THE LAST 4 inches of air out..so tonite I bought 6 inches,,,took 2 minutes,,three strokes
Nice work! Thanks for watching!
Why not just install the master cylinder and put brake fluid in it and start pumping the air that cant be compressed will rise to the top of the master cylinder .
GREAT VIDEO!! Very detailed!! Best on here! Just a comment. When I do this I get those small rubber line caps and put them on the plastic fittings once the hoses are removed. This way it won't leak while going to install the master. OH, Nice car! What we have seen of it.. LOL!
Thanks for sharing!
Hello, how are you? Thank you for all the work you do. My name is Mustafa, from Algeria. I want to learn and take training with you. Now I work in Algeria as an educator only. can you help me
You bleed the caliper farthest from the master cylinder first do not start from the closest
They make caps for the plastic fittings. Probably cost 1/2 cent.
I've found those just make a mess. My fingers are easier to plug and unplug. Thanks for the input though James!
And if you don't have a vice? Still don't see the difference bench vs on car
Because the car might not actuate the plunger fully. Thanks for watching!
When your gravity bleeding wheel cylinders, you don't need to put a tube on or put it down in a bottle with more oil It's not going to make a difference as long as you make sure nobody pushes the brake pedal when you're doing this, That's how I always do mine and never had an issue.
When your bench bleeding I don't understand why they don't let some oil gravity feed out the two tubes before you stick them down in the reservoir. Looks like that would bleed it a lot faster.
OMG just get to it, took to long to blab so I'm leaving to find a video that doesn't want to be famous.
Bye! Thanks for watching!
This car is brand new... you just bought it a minute ago. Just kidding! I know you want to educate us how to do it.
You should've shown the actual install 😞
