Nice home made bleeder.

My MB is 85 300sd. Has ABS. Would a home made bleeder be adequate to bleed a brake system after replacing the master cylinder? Have heard that getting air in the ABS pump is bad. Never replaced a MC on ABS car before.

Instructions on how to replace the MC in the service manual section 43 0310 says "immediately plug all brake lines with rubber caps and connections on tandem brake cylinder with dummy plugs", but has no special bleeding instructions. Just says, "bleed brakes and check for leakage". Thanks.
