you have to bleed the master cylinder first , then start with the wheel farthest away from it , I use various clear hoses matching fittings that run into the reservoir for the master and one that runs upwards for the wheels , then open the valve and only press the pedal 1 or 2 inches the fluid will come out of the bleeder and any air will rise to the top , fully depressing an older master can damage the seals inside .

    1992 K1500. Blinkers were working normally then when the brake was depressed, they would blink rapidly. Now when the lights are on, the flash once and then every 10-15 seconds.
