I think I screwed up. I was replacing brake pads/rotors and thought the brake fluid could use refreshing (old & dark). I sucked out all the old fluid in the reservoir with a turkey baster & refilled it with new fluid. I was alone & don't have a bleeder bomb so this is the process I used. I attached a clear vinyl hose to the rt/front bleeder, ran it uphill about 18" then down into a container with the end submerged in fluid. I opened the bleeder & pumped the brake pedal (engine off) to the floor about 10 times, not closing off the bleeder in between pumps, occasionally checking & replenishing the reservoir. Slow, deliberate strokes to the floor, remove foot and allow the pedal to return on its own, wait a few seconds in between pumps to let the fluid recharge into the MC bore. Fluid ran out nice & clean. Repeated the process on the left front. Did not observe any air in the hose coming out of the caliper, nor did I see any air being drawn into the caliper when the pedal was released. Buttoned everything up - no muss, no fuss.After the job was done, I started the truck and with power assist the pedal can be pushed to the floor, not so with engine off. No brake warning light on the dash. I'm new to the truck, not familiar with hyd power assist, but I assume I still should get a solid pedal. I guess I got some air into the system, not sure how. Weather has been too wet to crawl around under the truck lately so I haven't tried bleeding the rear brakes. Haven't taken it out for a road test either - I think it would stop but with diminished performance. Just dropping a line to see if there are any peculiar tricks to bleeding the system on these trucks. All of the plumbing on the wheel well associated with the 4 wheel ABS looks like a good place for an air bubble to get caught up in. Appreciate any suggestions.Joe in St Louis
