Bleeding the @#$%!*# Brakes...
I changed out the brake pads on my '02 Cruiser. In the process, I cracked the drivers-side caliper. So I bought a new caliper, put it on, and now I'm getting very little brake pressure. I'm pretty sure it's because I have air in the lines (damned thing sat overnight without the caliper on and drained out the fluid), so now I'm trying to figure out how to bleed out the brakes so they'll work again. I miss driving my car.
Anyone have any advice on this? I've never done this before, and aside from cracking the caliper (hint: Don't hit the piston with a hammer to get it go back in...I know...I'm an idiot) I did an alright job.
