It may take some time but it's a slow process.   Logged     dave   The administrator has disabled public write access. #508545 buckshot (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1220 Re:Hello from Maine 11 Months, 4 Weeks ago   from Northeast Iowa. I belive if you leave the top off of the resivor, put some pressure on the lever and tie it off over night would do the trick too.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #508546 ColorBlind (User) Die living Gold Boarder Posts: 831 Re:Hello from Maine 11 Months, 4 Weeks ago   davej wrote: open the bleeders and let it gravity bleed or just keep pumping the lever.

It's harder if yer' stupid(J.Wayne) Platinum Boarder Posts: 5057 Re:Hello from Maine 11 Months, 4 Weeks ago   If you leave the cover off, tap the upper line and barely squeeze the lever, you'll see bubbles. Do that 100 times and you should see the pressure start to come up. And, welcome.
