Default Re: Trouble bleeding rear brakes

These are new calipers so I assumed that I would have to wait till fluid flows freely in order to know I've filled the caliper with fluid and all air has been removed. I've been at this for days off and on and would have thought I'd see results by now.

I haven't tried it with the engine on. Always thought with an ABS system, with the engine running you are pressurizing the abs system and traditional bleeding of the brakes won't work. I might be wrong.

Shouldn't I be seeing a free flow of fluid at some point using both a Motive pump and a Mighty vac?

Thanks guys!
