cars with ABS require pressure bleeding per the MB shop manual.

Problem with the old pumping the pedal method is you are pushing the [iston cups beyond their normal travel point. That area is where the crude will lie and this ussually shortens the M/C life. Much better to either pressure bleed or on older cars you can use something like a vacuula.
