Re: Flush Completed, Bleeding Going Badly...

Okay, I jumped the gun.  I drove a mile or two and the groaning is going
away.  I guess it's just trapped air.  The brake light still comes on if I
hit the pedal while the car is stopped.  Maybe this is just more trapped air
too.  If not, I guess I'll be putting in a new bomb soon.
