breaks
How do I bleed the the breaks on a 1999 corvette. I am put on new red calipers with speed bleeders also put on new drilled and slotted rotors and I am putting on the new Z07 wheels and tires 19's in rear and 18's in front. And one last thing I am going to install the passager air bag on off switch has any body ever done this if so let me what I am in for. Lots to do today so I better get started.

Depending on whose speedbleeders you bought, you generally open them one at a time .... about 1/4 to 1/2 turn make sure you have a piec eof tubing over the nipple and let the tubing run into a catch can.
Make usre your master cylinder is full. with the top on. Pump the brakes several times until the fluid coming out is clean and clear and there is no air bubles., close the bleeder and move to the next wheel and repeat the above....
Correct sequence to bleed is :
Bleed order for 1997 - 2000 is RR – LR – RF - LF
