How do you bleed the air from brake lines of 2002 Lincoln LS?
Remove wheel by wheel and rock the car to avoid slipping ( use jack stands for safety ) then you will find in the back of the caliper a bolt (bleed nipple) covered with small rubber cover, remove cover and start the engine, in this part you need assistance to press on the brake pedal many times (4 times pressing to the last then release), you have to be ready to untighten this bolt (bleed nipple) then ask your assistant to press full down and keep (DONT RELEASE THE PEDAL), once he pressed untighten the bolt (bleed nipple) but not too much, once the oil is out ( you have to put a container under this part) tighten it agin and ask your assistant to release the pedal, its better to do the four wheels to get the best performance and check the oil level before and after. Good luck
