Replacing Brake lines
I know this is a novice question, but here it is. I purchased fom stainless brake lines from Rippie. When I install them, and have the lines removed, do I need to be concerned about draining the brake fluid from teh ABS unit? Of course, when I refill and flush the brakes, I will purge air from the brakelines, but what about the ABS unit?

Bleeding after replacing flex lines
Hi
I have replaced the flex lines and didn't need to work the ABS.
I think the only time you need to work the ABS with the TECHII is when you want to purge the brake fluid completley.
Good luck,
Steve

if you don't let the master cylinder run dry, you should be fine with a normal bleed.
I did let it drain dry accidently once and was worried that i wouldn't be able to get all the air out, but it worked fine.
