    Hi All,

    I finally got speedbleeders for my Si of which I plan on installing with
    fresh brake fluid this weekend. My question is can I replace each screw and
    bleed it one corner at a time in one step or do I need to replace all 4
    bleed screws and go back and bleed them again. I'm wondering if totally
    removing/replacing the 2nd screw in a single L/R channel blows the bleed for
    the 1st in the same channel. Hopefully this makes sense. Thanks!

    Fill the master cylinder, start at the wheel furthest from the master
    cylinder, replace bleeders one at a time, then go back and bleed furthest
    from the master cylinder, working your way to the master cylinder,keeping an
    eye on the fluid level, this is how I would do it.
