Brake Bleeding Pressure

There was a recent thread either here or on the old forum about how much pressure to use with a Pressure Bleeder in order to bleed the brakes - especially on vehicles with ABS.

Answer: 2 Bar = 29 PSI

This from the MB workshop manual for the G. (I have so darned many books and papers that sometimes it's hard to put my fingers on something right away.)

Re: Brake Bleeding Pressure

Thanks Dutch, in the non ABS trucks I usually can do a good job at 15 psi or so.
