Hi All,

I finally got speedbleeders for my Si of which I plan on installing with
fresh brake fluid this weekend. My question is can I replace each screw and
bleed it one corner at a time in one step or do I need to replace all 4
bleed screws and go back and bleed them again. I'm wondering if totally
removing/replacing the 2nd screw in a single L/R channel blows the bleed for
the 1st in the same channel. Hopefully this makes sense. Thanks!

Fill the master cylinder, start at the wheel furthest from the master
cylinder, replace bleeders one at a time, then go back and bleed furthest
from the master cylinder, working your way to the master cylinder,keeping an
eye on the fluid level, this is how I would do it.
