Brake Bleeding
Discussion
Morning all
Service time on the '03 WRX STi
Replacing all the brake fluid;
Now, I've got a Gunson Ezibleed which I've used on previous cars, but the cap thats on it won't fit on the Impreza reservoir;
I've not come across a reservoir cap like the one on the impreza - all the ones I've bled previously have been threaded, unlike the impreza which isn't !
Whats the collective advice for one man bleeding ?
Also, anything special about the fluid ? I've got a spare new bottle of Castrol SRF which I intend using.
cheers

thanks all;
yep - I thought the same re bleed nipples - careful squirt of penetrating oil yesterday to get them ready for removal this weekend (hopefully...)
Fixing a few bits & bobs too;
suspension is making a few noises, so all drop links, ball joints & strut top mounts are being replaced, and all bushes checked on the way.
Was halfway through NSF yesterday when the car had to be quickly put back together no.1 daughter decided to give birth two weeks early !
I've got the factory service manual for the car which makes things so much easier :-)
