If not repeat the process again until pedal feels firm 16. Double check all your work and clean down vehicle with water This is the basic step by step procedure for brake bleeding and flushing the hydraulic brake system. In this video I also show you how to make your own homemade DIY vacuum brake bleeding tool. To make the bleeder you will require a spray bottle head and a small piece of clear tubing and also a straight barb joiner. You will also require a piece of rubber hose that fits over the brake caliper nipple. Once you join the hoses to the end of the spray bottle head you will be able to suck the fluid out of the master cylinder reservoir and also bleed all of the air out of the brakes. This is a great way to bleed the brakes because you can bleed the brakes by yourself. You don't need any help when bleeding the brakes you can carry out a one man brake bleed. By using this DIY Home made vacuum brake bleeder you will find that you can easily suck out the old brake fluid and air bubbles from the hydraulic system. It is important to change the brake fluid in your vehicle every 2-3 years. The reason is that brake fluid is actually hygroscopic which means that it absorbs moisture. When the moisture is absorbed into the brake fluid the brakes can become spongy or you can have a very long brake pedal. The way that the air bubbles form is from the moisture turning to steam under heavy braking which in turn creates air bubbles in the system. In the hydraulic system the air can now be compressed so you may notice a spongy or soft brake pedal. The brake pedal may also travel further towards the floor before it stops the vehicle. If you are noticing any of these issues it is a great idea to change your brake fluid. In my DIY brake bleeding and flushing tutorial I show you a thorough guide on how to carry out a brake system flush and bleed properly. My tips for carrying out a brake fluid flush include- 1. wear gloves 2. wear safety glasses 3. wash down any brake fluid ASAP with water 4. Lay cardboard underneath your work area to absorb any spills 5. keep the reservoir always topped up Bleeding the brakes on your car or 4wd is a necessary part of maintenance.
