[s-cars] refilling brake system

[Wylie Bean]

Thanks Ian
I guess I figured i'd have to go back and bleed all 4 corners of any air once the fluid started weeping out the screws.

I might suggest getting a pressure bleeder (such as the excellent Motive Power Bleeder www.motiveproducts.com <http://www.motiveproducts.com> ), filling both the brake reservoir and the bleeder reservoir, pumping up the bleeder, and releasing bleeder screws in order until each is free of bubbles, all the while checking the pressure bleeder reservoir to ensure it remains full.

OK so it's been sitting a while, but I finally got my clutch slave cylinder back on the cq last night and the line hooked back up.  I've also replaced the clutch master cylinder and all 4 brake lines at the wheels with stainless, and rebuilt all 4 calipers.  It's time to refill the system since it's empty.  Should I just open all the bleeder screws and start pouring fluid in and wait?  I know there's a procedure for bleeding the brakes, but what about just filling the system full of new parts?

Any right or wrong?
