    Get a buddy to help you.

    Fill the master cylinder with fresh fluid.
    Attach a clear line to the bleed valve on the brake caliper
    Terminate the line into a container partially filled with brake fluid, submerge the end and keep it that way.
    Pump the brakes till firm.
    Open the bleed valve let the fluid run out.
    Close the valve, release the brake pedal.
    Pump the pedal till firm.
    Open the bleed valve. Repeat till the fluid is clear.

    Remember
    1.Do not let the master cylinder go empty. If it does you will have to bleed it also.
    2.Use a box wrench on the bleed valve. Wrong tool will destroy it.
    3.Start with the caliper furthest from the master cylinder.
    4.Use the right brake fluid. This is critical. DOT 3 is not the same as DOT 5 !!!!
    5.Brake fluid will destroy paint. Work clean.
