Hi all. Now that I have a nice DIY pressure bleeder: http://tinyurl.com/yhbumrf (Yes it's pink. It was also 10% off ;) and can see what's coming out the hose, I'd like to make sure of something. With 10-12 PSI in pressure bleeder, rears bleed ~ 1/2 as fast as fronts But comparing a front and rear bleeder screw, small hole appears to be the same ID. Do rears bleed slower because there is one long line split to each cylinder? (can't recall how lines route up front. Can't see a pic in Bentley or online) Neil. -- Neil Nicholson '81 VanaJetta 2.0 "Jaco" http://tubaneil.googlepages.com/ http://groups.google.com/group/vanagons-with-vw-inline-4-cylinder-gas-engines
