Default Alyn, please help! :D

Finally got round to fitting my braided hoses from last years AS Performance groupbuy but not completely happy with the pedal feel.

Don't get me wrong, there is a pedal but it just needs a bit more imho. Have searched at length on here and have come across contradictions in which order to bleed??? I used the traditional furthest away getting closer which would seem wrong?

I have also come across posts from several years ago suggesting bleeding the ABS pump?

Would appreciate definitive advice on bleed order and also info on bleeding the ABS. Car is UK MY96 with ABS.

Cheers,
Ritchie.

Hoses look well smart BTW.

start at N/SF, O/S/R, THEN O/S/F, N/S/R..............check all fittings for leaks, etc. by getting some one to maintain pressure on the brakes whilst another checks all the lines

Didn't really know bleeding in different order could make a difference,or is this just for when you have drained system totally and have air right through the system??
