[Healeys] re-bleeding brakes

[mark lapierre]

My books all say to start from the bleeder that is furthest away from the
cylinder.   Also,  many times my brakes have gotten better when they sat for a
few days after bleeding.

I spent the day replacing the brake master cylinder (and clutch too).  I'm
getting good braking with a little travel on the first pressure. The next
push
gives less pedal travel with again good braking. I need to re-bleed, I'm
guessing.While bleeding the right rear, I had a leak at the right front
wheel.
Is that a good guess as to where to begin? Or back at the master cylinder?
Thanks for all the earlier advice.
