I am 100% sure you start with the capiler furthest away from the resevoir. (pass. rear, driver rear, pass. front, driver front)

As for the tubing. If you've ever had a fish tank, you will know exactly what i'm talking about. I use the clear plastic hoses that connect to the air pump. You can buy it anywhere they sell air pumps for fish aquariums.

I seen some articles saying to start bleeding from the furthest caliper from the resevoir and some saying otherwise? So do you which is it? furthest or closest first?

Also, what should I use to connect to the bleeder nipple?

Thanks
