If a pressure type brake fluid dispenser is available attach it to the top of the master cylinder. Other wise fill the master cylinder, start with the wheel cylinder that is furthermost from the master, and bleed until fluid comes out clean and free from bubbles. make sure to replenish the the master cylinder as needed. then proceed to the next farther wheel cylinder and repeat with the rest of the wheel cylinders. top off the master cylinder. Test with the engine off then with the engine running before driving.

On a 93 ford tempo master brake cylinder are the front brakes controlled by the lines on the bottem of the master brake cylinder or the sides?

What causes no brake pedal after replacing rear brake pad and master cylinder?
Air in the system ----------------------------------- If you have replaced the master, you have to bench bleed it first to get the air out. That done, master bolted on, you will then have to bleed the 4 wheels, till all the air is out. If you need more info, send me a msg. and I will go thru all the steps.
How do you change brake master cylinder on 1999 ford ranger 4 cylinder no cruise control?
Start by taking the old master cylinder off first. First remove the brake lines from it and any wires/plugs that may be hooked into sensors. Then remove the 2 bolts that hold the master cylinder to your brake booster. If you bought just the master cylinder without the reservoir you are gonna have the reservoir off the old master cylinder. Be careful not to snap the plastic though. I found the easiest way to remove it with the tools I had, was to rip the top off the rubber seal off. Then I could fit a pair of needle nose pliers between the reservoir and the master cylinder. I positioned it different ways to "wedge" the reservoir out of the master cylinder. Do the same thing for both holes, unless you have a better way of doing it. After you have removed it, reinstall the reservoir on the new master cylinder. Then re-secure the master cylinder with the 2 bolts onto the brake booster. Reconnect the brake lines and sensors the same way they were before. You have to bleed the master cylinder using the bleeder on the engine side of the master cylinder. Then bleed the master cylinder out to the brake lines to make sure brake fluid was flowing properly. Then you can go thru your brakes and bleed them properly, starting from the furthest location.
How do you bleed the clutch on a 1991 Jeep Wranger 4-cylinder?
The clutch bleeding is similar to bleeding brakes. Although you must be sure the clutch cylinder is higher that the bleed fittings and if you can't get it to bleed you may have to purchase a tool at you local parts store that will force bleed the system. This will pull the air out of the system and pull the fluid in. Always be sure to keep the master clutch reservoir full at all times.

How do you bleed the clutch in a 96 Ranger I have followed the Haynes manual to the letter everything is new and this thing acts like I cut the line between the master cylinder and slave cylinder?
AnswerThe most critical thing is to prevent air from getting into the system. After replacing the slave cylinder, the system must be bled to get the air out. This requires two people, working in cordination, to be effective. While one person sits in the car, the other stands where they car reach the bleed valve on the slave cylinder. The cap on the clutch master cylinder must be open, and extra brake fluid on hand. The person standing outside the vehicle opens the bleed valve on the slave cylinder, and then tells the person sitting inside the vehicle to depress the clutch pedal. The person sitting in the car slowly depresses the clutch pedal, telling the person outside when the pedal is all the way to the end of its travel, and then holding the pedal there. The person outside the vehicle closes the bleed valve, and tells the person inside to release the clutch pedal. After checking to make sure that there is still plenty of brake fluid in the master cylinder, the process is repeated. Usually, it will take at least three pumps to completely clear the system of air. Care must be taken that the master cylinder does not run short of fluid, or air will be introduced to the system. Once the system has been properly bled, the clutch pedal should be firm, but able to travel its full range. Visully inspect the slave cylinder operation to insure that the piston is pushing the throw-out bearing fork. The amount of travel may only be a few centimeters, but the fork must move. On some the slave cylinder doesn't release all the air. You need to connect a clear rubber tube (about 5' long) to the bleed port on the slave cylinder bleed port running it up toward the raised hood and repeat the bleed. Allow the fluid to flow up the tube until it is within 4" of the top. If the clutch works properly remove tube, if clutch still doesn't work blow on tube with bleed port open and force fluid back through slave cylinder. Close bleed port before all the fluid is out of the tube. I had to do this on a 96 B3000 4X4 and an 06 Ford Focus.

Bleed your system out with new DOT 4 brake fluid. If you are lucky you just have some air in the system. If not your M/C or slave cylinder may need replacement
How do you bleed brakes on a 1993 suzuki swift?
bleeding brakes is the same on all vehicles that use a hydraulic master cylinder: **you will need two people to bleed your brakes - 1. ensure master cylinder is full of brake fluid. 2. begin with the wheel closest to the master cylinder(start with front left, then front right, then rear left, and finally rear right). 3. have 1 person sit in drivers seat, engine and ignition off, pump brake pedal 3 to 4 times and then hold brake pedal down. 4. while brake pedal is being held down, person #2 gets under the vehicle at the first wheel and turns the bleed screw slightly until air and/or fluid escapes. 5. repeat steps 3 and 4 until a steady stream of FLUID ONLY comes out of the bleed screw. 6. do this to all wheels in the order mentioned above, and make sure to periodically check the fluid level in the master cylinder to make sure it does not fall below the minimum level!
Have soft brake pedal on93 silverado has master cylinder and block what is the proper method for bleeding air from system?
The preferred method is to use a pressure bleeder and bleed all 4 wheels at the same time. If a pressure bleeder is not available, use an assistant to pump the brake pedal several times and then hold pedal pressure. Starting with the farther most caliper from the master cylinder . Bleed each caliper until all air is expelled. make sure that assistant does not take his foot off pedal until bleeder valve is closed. Do each caliper from farthest away from master cylinder to closest. If master cylinder was not bench bled when installed, remove it and do that first. Then continue with the rest of the procedure.
Help change master cylinder on 1991 Nissan truck?
REMOVAL & INSTALLATIONBe careful not to spill brake fluid on the painted surfaces of the vehicle, as it will damage the paint.Unfasten the hydraulic lines from the master cylinder.Disconnect the hydraulic fluid pressure differential switch wiring. On models with fluid level sensors, also disconnect the fluid level sensor wiring.Loosen the master cylinder reservoir mounting bolts.On models with manual brakes, unfasten the master cylinder securing bolts and the clevis pin from the brake pedal, then remove the master cylinder. On models with power brakes, unfasten the nuts and remove the master cylinder assembly from the power brake unit. To install:Install the master cylinder in reverse order of removal and note the following: Many models have an UP mark on the cylinder boot; make sure it is in the correct position.Before tightening the master cylinder mounting nuts or bolts, screw the hydraulic lines into the cylinder body a few turns.After installation is completed, bleed the master cylinder and the brake system.Check and adjust the brake pedal as necessary.When replacing the the master cylinder, it is best to BENCH BLEED the master cylinder before installing it to the vehicle. Mount the master cylinder into a soft-jawed vise or suitable equivalent, so as not to damage the cylinder. Fill the cylinder to the correct level with new DOT 3 type brake fluid. Block off all the outer brake line holes but one, then position a long wooden dowel in the bore to actuate the brake master cylinder. Pump the brake master cylinder 3 or 4 times (push in and out with the dowel) until brake fluid is released and no air is in the brake fluid. Repeat this procedure until all brake fluid is released from every hole and no air is expelled.
