Hi Larry,

No offence taken at all. Did not even think of that. Donot worry, I 
cannot easily be offended anyway and I am always surprised that some on 
the list are a bit inflammable.
I often make comments that apply to classic cars in general and are not 
Healey specific. Many have other cars as well.

Cheers,
Kees Oudesluijs

          If the brakes are not de adjusted there is an air pocket in
          the wheel cylinders above the height of the bleed screw. The
          air will be very difficult to bleed out as it is trapped. I
