Peter. Thanks for the reply. Though I prefer not to power bleed due to the danger of spraying the paint remover DOT3 all over the place, I did set up my bleeder today. I pushed about 2 quarts through the system. Then the poor seal against the lip of the flexible reservoir sprayed the paint remover DOT3 all over the place and destroyed the new paint job in the engine bay. By the way, after the power bleed, I had zero pedal front and rear. The car is level. I notice that on the return stroke of the pedal, there is a fountain of fluid erupting from the rear chamber of the reservoir. As the reason for the brake system needed bleeding was that over the last several months I stripped the engine bay to perform a show quality repaint and detailing of the area, the fact that this effort was for naught due to the paint damage, I am more than discouraged.
Regards
BB
