Air in brake fluid line


Recommended Posts

I am trying to bleed the brake fluid, and need some help and advice here. 

First the way I bleed is, fill the reservoir full, hook up a Motive power bleeder with 5 psi pressure, then open the tip to let fluid out. I also refill the reservoir before it runs down so I know no air will go in. I did it with another car ( not Lincoln) with no problem, not seeing a single air bubble coming out from the tip.

But it doesn't go well with my 2011 MKZ. There are small air bubbles flowing out continuously. Just I can't believe how much air inside. For a single wheel, I have flushed at least a quart fluid but there is still more. Have I done anything wrong here? Hope some experts can give me a hand. Many thanks.
