thanks for the reply yes i have a fairly large one too.

the brakes seem to work correctly thats why i was wondering if it took a special tool or maybe i omitted a step

but there shouldnt be much more than opening the bleeder valve and applying pressure,is there?am i just having a cranial gas attack?
