Brake bleeding???

Bleeding with ABS.
Using a vacuum pump, is there anything I should know?
Thanks.

It's a bit messy and the waste reservoir is small. It’s tough to run between the bleed valve/vac pump and the brake reservoir to keep it topped off. After trying it once, I went to speed bleeders. They’re great! With someone pumping the pedal, I did all four in 10 min.!

I highly recommend the speed bleeders and an assistant as well

Just be sure to put a drain hose on them so they dont splash up on the paint.

Okay for speed bleeders. What size is needed and are there 2 on each rear caliper?
Have not had time to even look at this thing. Too much fun driving it.
I'll get some pics, soon and dazzle your eyes. It's just a C4, but the paint is very eye catching.

For my '96 - One in each caliper (4). I ordered from SpeedBleeder online. The product number on my invoice is SB1010. Back in '05 they were $28.00 for all 4 plus $7.50 shipping. Their web site has a chart to choose the right ones.

I have Dorman Speed Bleeders part # 12706. I used 4 of them.
Works great, hopefully last a long time.
