<p>I don't think the factory did it that way - they would have done
it the same as the brakes from the Master. But they used a higher
pressure and hence flow than is safe with an EeziBleed, and I have
read of workshops with similar higher-pressure equipment also do
it without problems.</p>
<p>But for us poor owners yes reverse filling has worked for me as
well - albeit not every time. The first time I did I connected
the EeziBleed to the clutch slave until I could see fluid in the
master, then topped off as normal, and had a perfect clutch. The
second time I did something else recommended and that was link the
right caliper and clutch slave nipples - they are the same size,
and while someone gently operated the brake pedal opened and
closed the clutch nipple - whilst keeping an eye on the level in
the brake master of course. Again a perfect clutch, and that is
despite the conventional wisdom that says the bleed nipple has to
be at the highest point in the cylinder - which it isn't with
reverse filling/bleeding. And when that hasn't worked, both for
myself and others, then wedging down overnight has. Even though
almost all the run is vertical it seems that having the front
higher than the rear makes the difference.<br>

has a method that eventually worked. Mine is to fill as I
assume they did at the factory—figure out the quantity of fluid
in the entire system, then push that amount in at the clutch
with a syringe until MC fills. The thought is that pushing up
from the bottom will take any bubbles along with the fluid to
the top. </div>
