Hi,
today I tried to bleed my brake system with a brake bleeding kit (vakuum) after i striped down my brembos for painting. Now I have the problem, that the bleeding kit drawing much of air. When I pump by foot there is no air in the tube.

What I did wrong?

sorry, l i don't quite understand
did you follow a guide on bleeding brakes?
do you see air in the tube only when using the vacuum?
is the bleed hose fitted very tightly on the bleed nipple?
did you bleed the inner nipple first?
if the calipers have been emptied it does take quite alot of fluid to get the air out

Yes, I followed the quide. I did this (bleeding) a lot of times, but every time by feet.

do you see air in the tube only when using the vacuum?
yes right.

is the bleed hose fitted very tightly on the bleed nipple?
Yes, additionally I push it with the thumb. Without success :x .

did you bleed the inner nipple first?
Yes

if the calipers have been emptied it does take quite alot of fluid to get the air out
Yes, I tought this also, so I use round about 1l :xcry: ...

After reading the i-net I found out, that the air is normal when I bleed by vacuum.
